The graph of a function gg is obtained from f(x)=x2f(x) = x^2 by reflecting over the xx-axis and shifting up 4. Which is the equation of gg?

  • A

    g(x)=x24g(x) = -x^2 - 4

  • B

    g(x)=x2+4g(x) = x^2 + 4

  • C

    g(x)=(x4)2g(x) = (x - 4)^2

  • D

    g(x)=x2+4g(x) = -x^2 + 4

    check_circle

Explanation

Reflect: x2-x^2. Shift up 4: x2+4-x^2 + 4.
