Describe the transformations of the graph of y=x^2 that will produce the graph of y=-(x-2)^2-1. A. Shift right 2 units, reflect across the x-axis, then down 1 unit B. Shift down 2 units, reflect across the y-axis, then right 1 unit C. Shift left 2 units, down 1 unit, then reflect across the y-axis D. Shift up 2 units, left 1 unit, then reflect across the x-axis

i think its C.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know how to :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay one sec

okay :)

i think thats how you get the answer but im not sure.
