Answer:
Option (C).
Step-by-step explanation:
Graphed function is,
f(x) = x² - 2x - 3
= x² - 2x + 1 - 1 - 3
= (x² - 2x + 1) - 4
= (x - 1)² - 4
f(-2x) = (-2x)² - 2(-2x) - 3
= 4x² + 4x - 3
= 4(x² + x) - 3
= 4[x² + 2(0.5)x + (0.5)²- (0.5)²] -3
= 4(x + 0.5)² - 1 - 3
= 4(x + 0.5)² - 4
= 4[(x - 1) + 1.5]² - 4
Therefore, parent function 'f' will be a horizontal shrink by 4 units and shifted 1.5 units to the left.
Option (C) will be the answer.
