Ok, so what happend was 4 was added to every x, the whole thing was multiplied by - 1 and - 2 was added to the whole function

so

adding 4 to every x shifts the graph to the left 4 units

multiplying the whole function by - 1 reflects it over the x axis

adding - 2 to the whole function moves it down2 units

so that would be the first option
