Answer

(a) $ y=-(x-1)^{2}+4$ (b) $ y=-(x+2)^{2}+3$ (c) $ y=-(x+4)^{2}-1$ (d) $ y=-(x-2)^{2}$

Work Step by Step

The original function is $ y=-x^{2}$ and the shift values along the $x$ and $y$ axis are all known. Thus, we have: (a) $ y-4=-(x-1)^{2}$ (b) $ y-3=-(x+2)^{2}$ (c) $ y+1=-(x+4)^{2}$ (d) $ y=-(x-2)^{2}$
