Answer:

The child function is
g(x) = \sqrt[3]{-x+5}

Explanation:

Parent function:

In this question, the parent function is
f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}

Translated 5 spaces to the right:

Translating a function 5 units to the right is finding f(x - 5).

In this question:


f(x-5) = \sqrt[3]{x-5}

Reflecting a function about the x-axis:

Reflecting a function f(x) about the x-axis is finding f(-x). So


f(-(x-5)) = \sqrt[3]{-(x-5)}


f(-x+5) = \sqrt[3]{-x+5}

The child function is
g(x) = \sqrt[3]{-x+5}
