Answer:

See below.

Explanation:

So we have the parent function:


f(x)=x^2

And it was transformed into:


g(x)=(3x)^2+6

First, the +6 at the very end simply tells us that the graph was shifted upwards by 6 units.

For the (3x), this is essentially saying that:


f(x)=x^2

If we use 3x for x:


f(3x)=(3x)^2

Therefore, we essentially multiplied the x variable by 3.

In other words, this is a horizontal compression by a factor of 3.

So, our transformations are:

1) 6 units upwards

2) Horizontal compression by 3
