Question

The graph of F(x) , shown below, resembles the graph of G(x) = x ^ 2 , but it has been changed somewhatWhich of the following could be the equation of F(x) ?

Answer 1

B.

Explanation:

Since we are moving the graph f(x) to the right 2 and down 1 with a reflection over the x-axis, we modify a, h, and k in f(x) = a(bx - h)² + k:

We would get f(x) = -(x - 2)² - 1 as our answer.
