Below is a portion of the graph of a transformation 𝑓(𝑥)

. Following the Black, Purple, Blue, Red color scheme that is used in the textbook (as illustrated in Example 6 in Section 2.6), give the Black, Purple, Blue, Red sequence of functions that ends with the function that is graphed below. Enter your answer as a sequence of four functions separated by commas. The first term in your sequence should be 𝑥3
. The last term in your sequence should be the formula that would complete this sentence: The formula for this transfomation is 𝑓(𝑥)=

Based on the graph you uploaded, it appears to be a transformation of the basic cubic function \( f(x) = x^3 \). To determine the sequence of transformations, we will analyze the graph and describe how the cubic function was shifted, stretched, or reflected.

Let’s break down the transformations step by step, following a color scheme:

1. **Black**: The base function, \( f(x) = x^3 \). This is the starting point of the sequence.

2. **Purple**: We notice that the graph has been reflected along the x-axis, indicating a negative sign in front of \( x^3 \). The function becomes:
   \[
   f(x) = -x^3
   \]

3. **Blue**: The next transformation involves a vertical shift. Observing the graph, the cubic curve appears to have been moved downward, indicating a vertical shift. Based on the graph's behavior, we estimate that it has shifted by 6 units downward:
   \[
   f(x) = -x^3 - 6
   \]

4. **Red**: Finally, there is a horizontal shift to the right, indicating the addition of a constant inside the argument of the function. The shift is by 5 units to the right:
   \[
   f(x) = -(x - 5)^3 - 6
   \]

Thus, the final transformation is:
\[
f(x) = -(x - 5)^3 - 6
\]

### Final answer (color sequence):
\[
x^3, -x^3, -x^3 - 6, -(x - 5)^3 - 6
\]

This is the sequence of functions ending with the given transformation.
