Question 1157008

15. f(x)=-(x+4)^2

I need help graphing the following and listing the directions,vertex,axis of symmetry,table with 5 points and the graph for this equation
<pre>Parent function of a quadratic: {{{matrix(1,6, f(x), "=", x^2, ",", or, (x + 0)^2)}}}
{{{matrix(1,7, f(x), "=", (x + 0)^2, "=====>", f(x), "=", (x + 4)^2)}}} -------- This means that the parent function, {{{matrix(1,3, f(x), "=", x^2)}}} is SLID 4 units to the left 
{{{highlight_green(matrix(1,5, f(x), "=", (x + 4)^2, "=====>", highlight(matrix(1,3, f(x), "=", - (x + 4)^2))))}}} ----- This means that the TRANSFORMED parent function, or {{{matrix(1,3, f(x), "=", (x + 4)^2)}}} is FLIPPED, or REFLECTED in the x-axis.
