Bridgette made a graph of her neighborhood on a coordinate grid. The points A(-2, 3), B(-2, -2), C(2, -2), and D(2, 3) represent
her daily jogging path. She starts at her house, point A, then she jogs to points B, C, and D before returning home. If each space on the coordinate grid represents 1 block, how many blocks does she jog?

Here the list of the transformations applied to the parent function, and their effect:
. This causes a horizontal compression of factor 4.
. This causes a horizontal translation, 3 units to the left.
. This causes a reflection about the x axis.
. This causes a vertical translation, 3 units up
So, if you start from the graph of , you have to compress and translate it horizontally, flip it with respect to the x axis, and finally move it up 3 units.
