Find this equation! and please explain what reflect over x-axis mean!

Question

If the parabola 𝑦 = 𝑥^2 undergoes the following transformations: reflected over the x-axis, 1

translated 5 units left and 2 units down, and compressed vertically by a factor of 2, what is its new equation?

Answer 1

y = -x² reflected over x-axis

y = -(x + 5)² 5 units to the left

y = -(x + 5)² - 3 3 units down

y = (-1/2)(x + 5)² - 3 compressed by 2
