Write a function k(x) that has the following transformations from the parent function f(x) = x.
Do not simplify equation.
Vertical reflection over the x-axis, vertical shift down 6.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

Step 1.  Vertical reflection over the x-axis transforms the parent function f(x) = x
         to function g(x) = -x.


Step 1.  Vertical shift down 6 transforms function g(x) = -x
         to function k(x) = -x - 6.


ANSWER.  k(x) = -x-6.

Solved.
