Question

Heather is going to graph y = -3x^2 + 3. How is the parent graph transformed?

Answer 1

Using a graphic tool
see the graphic in the attached file  

The answer is the option A) The parent graph is reflected over the x-axis, has a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 and is shifted up 3 units

Answer 2

The parent graph y=x^2 is flipped and stretched 3 times vertically because the coefficient of the x^2 term is -3. Then, the entire graph is shifted 3 units up due to the constant term 3.
