Output----The value that results from the substitution of a given input into an expression or function
I believe the answer is A.
The area of a rectangle is Base x height whereas the area of a triangle is Base x height divided by 2
The -4 will translate the graph of f(x) 4 units to the right.
Then the -2 before the x will stretch it vertically with factor 2, then reflect it in the y -axis.
Finally the + 5 will translate the graph 5 units vertically upwards
