An engineer is using a polynomial function to model the height of a roller coaster over time x, as shown.

On a coordinate plane, a curve increases from quadrant 3 and crosses the y-axis at (0, 4). It then decreases and crosses the x-axis at (5, 0). It continues to decrease and then starts to increase and crosses the x-axis at (8, 0).
The engineer wants to modify the roller coaster design by transforming the function. Which represents 2 f (0.3 x minus 1) + 10, the modified design of the roller coaster?
