Question Analysis
This problem assesses the student's ability to apply multiple transformations (vertical shift and reflection over the y-axis) to a polynomial function.

Key Concept Explanation
A vertical shift by units is represented by the transformation , and a reflection over the y-axis is represented by the transformation . For this problem, we need to first shift the function 2 units up and then reflect it over the y-axis.

Step-by-step Solution
1. Start with the original function:
2. Apply the vertical shift:
