Given that f(x) = x^2 .type a function that would shift f(x) up 7 units, vertically stretch the function by a factor of 9, and reflect is across the y-axis?

Given that f(x) = x^2

vertically stretch the function by a factor of 9

For vertical stretch we multiply the factor by f(x)

for vertical stretch ,

reflect is across the y-axis

While reflect across y axis , f(x) becomes f(-x). we replace x  with -x

becomes

shift f(x) up 7 units

when shifting f(x) up by 7 units we add 7 at the end of f(x)

becomes

So

i get you, what you should do is think of the positive things that would come out of it. it will make yours parents proud and raise your grade. you should always try and if you can't focus tell the teacher.
