ANSWER
[tex]y=-(x-2)^2\text{ + 4}[/tex]EXPLANATION
We have that the graph of y is:
[tex]y=(x+2)^2\text{ - 1}[/tex]It is first reflected about the x axis.
A reflection about the x axis is represented as:
y = -f(x)
which means that we find the negative of the function:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow y=-\lbrack(x+2)^2\text{ - 1\rbrack} \\ y=-(x+2)^2\text{ + 1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, it is translated 3 units up (vertical shift) and 4 units right (horizontal shift).
A translation is represented as:
y = f(x - a) + b
where a = horizontal shift; b = vertical shift
So, we have to find:
y = f(x - 4) + 3
That is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y\text{ = }-\lbrack(x-4)+2\rbrack^2\text{ + 1 + 3} \\ y=-(x-4+2)^2\text{ + 4} \\ y=-(x-2)^2\text{ + 4} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, that is the equation of the transformed graph.
