parent function: x^2

shift 5 units down and 4 units right: (x-4)^2 - 5

reflect across x-axis: -(x-4)^2 - 5

            The solution by other person is incorrect.

            I came to bring a correct solution. 


parent function: y = x^2


shift 5 units down and 4 units right: y = (x-4)^2 - 5


reflect across x-axis: y = -(x-4)^2 + 5.      ANSWER
