So the equation for these types of equations is f(x) = a(x-h)+k with h being a horizontal translation, a being a stretch/compression and k being a vertical translation. So here if you want a stretch of 4 a would be four, g(x)=4(-3x-h)+k. Also, there is a horizontal translation so it would be positive 4 into the equation. Since there is no change in the y-axis there is no vertical translation resulting in g(x) = 4(-3x-4)
Answer: y = -3(x +
)² +

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
First, you need to complete the square:
y = -3x² - 5x + 1
<u> -1 </u> <u> -1 </u>
y - 1 = -3x² - 5x
y - 1 = -3(x² + 
y - 1 + -3(
) = -3(x² +

y - 1 -
= -3(x +
)²
y -
-
= -3(x +
)²
y -
= -3(x +
)²
y = -3(x +
)² +
Now, it is in the form of y = a(x - h)² + k <em>where (h, k) is the vertex</em>

To do these problems, plug in a couple of values into the equations, and see the general shape of the graph. To ensure you were right, check them on an online graphing calculator. I highly recommend Desmos Graphing Calculator. Cheers!
