An electronics manufacturer recently created a new version of a popular device. It also created this function to represent the profit, P(x), in tens of thousands of dollars, that the company will earn based on manufacturing x thousand devices: P(x) = -0.16x2 + 21.6x – 400. The profit function for the first version of the device was very similar to the profit function for the new version. As a matter of fact, the profit function for the first version is a transformation of the profit function for the new version. For the value x = 40, the original profit function is half the size of the new profit function. Write two function transformations in terms of P(x) that could represent the original profit function.

Write the two possible functions from part a in simplified form.
