    The correct answers are:

    1) A;

    2) A;

    4) D

    3 cannot be done because the graph is not shown.

    Explanation:

    1) Shifting a graph to the left, we would normally think of subtracting 1 from the function. However, horizontal translations are the opposite; left means adding 1 to x, while right means subtracting 1 from x.

    2) A reflection in the x-axis means the y-coordinate will be negated (the opposite sign). This means that g (x) = - f (x) = - (x^2+5=-x^2-5.

    4) To perform a vertical stretch of a function, we multiply by the factor; this gives us y=6x.
