9. the graph of a function p(x) is shown. draw the graph of -p(x - 1)-3.

I'll tell you which transformation you have to apply to draw the new graph:

Transformations like translate the function horizontally, k units right if k is negative, k units left if k is positive. In this case, k is negative, so you shift the graph 1 unit to the right.

Transformations like stretch the function vertically. If k is negative, they also reflect the graph about the x axis. In this case, k is -1, so you reflect the graph and then stretch with factor 1 (i.e. you don't stretch). So, you reflect the graph about the x axis.

Transformations like translate the function vertically, k units down if k is negative, k units up if k is positive. In this case, k is negative, so you shift the graph 3 unit down.

Follow the bold instruction (in that order!) and you'll have the graph of the new function.
