Question 1077965: The graph of y = 2x^2 is transformed into y = -2x^2 + 3. Which of the following situations best represents the effect of transformation on the graph of the quadratic function? (Select all that apply).
A.) The transformation vertically stretches the graph by a factor of -2.
B.) The transformation reflects the graph over the y-axis.
C.) The transformation shifts the graph 3 units up.
D.) The transformation shrinks the graph by a factor of -2.
E.) The transformation shifts the graph 2 units down.

This shift the graph 3 units up and |a|>1, so it stretches the graph vertically by a factor of -2, A and C.
It reflects it somewhat over the x-axis, not the y-axis
