y=x%5E6
+y=-2%28x-5%29%5E6%2B3
+graph%28+600%2C+600%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+-10%2C+10%2C+x%5E6%2C-2%28x-5%29%5E6%2B3%29+
subtracting 5 moves the graph of parent function 5 units to the right
multiplying by -2 flip it upside down-reflection about the x-axis
by adding a constant to the y-value, in your case 3, we move the line 3 units up
