Explain how to obtain the graph of the given quadratic function from the graph of f(x) = -4(x - 5)2 + 8

A. Take the graph of y = x2 and shift it 5 units to the left, shift it 8 units up, vertically stretch it by a factor of +4, and the graph will open downward.
B. Take the graph of y = x2 and shift it 5 units to the right, shift it 8 units up, vertically compress it by a factor of +4, and the graph will open downward.
C. Take the graph of y = x2 and shift it 5 units to the right, shift it 8 units up, vertically stretch it by a factor of +4, and the graph will open downward.
