Find the gradient of the line which has equation
3x - 5y =12

3x - 5y = 12

3x - 12 = 5y

(3/5)x - (12/5) = y

m = 3/5

Please use "^" to denote exponentiation.

Start with f(x) = x^2.  Shifting the graph of f(x) 1 unit to the left results in

g(x) = (x+1)^2.

Vertically stretching the graph of g(x) by a factor of 3 results in

h(x) = 3(x+1)^2.

Reflecting h(x) over the x-axis results in k(x) = -3(x+1)^2
