Answer:

C) left 2 units, down 9 units, vertical compression by a factor of 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the transformation, compare the function to the parent function and check to see if there is a horizontal or vertical shift, reflection about the x-axis or y-axis and if there is a vertical stretch.

Parent Function:  

g ( x ) = x 2

Horizontal Shift: Left  2  Units

Down: 9 Units

Vertical Shift: Down  0.5  Units

Reflection about the x-axis: None

Reflection about the y-axis: None

Vertical Compression or Stretch: Compressed
