Answer
### 1. Reflection over the x-axis### 2. Vertical stretch by a factor of 4### 3. Horizontal stretch by a factor of 5 and reflection over the y-axis### 4. Horizontal translation 6 units right### 5. Vertical translation 7 units up
Explanation
## Step 1: Reflection over the x-axis### The negative sign in front of the
reflects the graph over the x-axis.## Step 2: Vertical Stretch### The
multiplying the function results in a vertical stretch by a factor of
.## Step 3: Horizontal Stretch### The
multiplying the
results in a horizontal stretch by a factor of
and a reflection over the y-axis due to the negative sign.## Step 4: Horizontal Translation### The
inside the function results in a horizontal translation
units to the right.## Step 5: Vertical Translation### The
added to the function results in a vertical translation
units up.
