Compared with the graph of the parent function,

which equation shows a vertical stretch by a factor
of 6, a shift of 7 units right, and a reflection over the
X-axis?

Explanation:

as I don't see any equations or graphs here I can only answer in general :

f(x) is the patent function.

g(x) is the transformed function.

g(x) = -6f(x-7)

the "-" reflects the curve over the x-axis (what was positive is now negative and vice versa).

the factor 6 stretches the curve up and down by the factor 6 (everything is now 6 times larger or smaller).

and the argument "x-7" relates x (for the new function) with "x-7", meaning that now things are happening at x, that were originally happening at x-7, so they happen now "later" (more to the right on the x-axis) than before - hence a shift to the right.
