Describe the Transformations and Give the Equation for the Graph $f ( x ) = \sqrt { x }$

question 252

Multiple Choice

Describe the transformations and give the equation for the graph.
-

• A) It is the graph of \(f ( x ) = \sqrt { x }\) translated 3 units to the left and translated 5 units up. The equation is \(y = \sqrt { x + 3 } - 5\)
• B) It is the graph of \(f ( x ) = \sqrt { x }\) translated 3 units to the left and translated 5 units up. The equation is \(y = \sqrt { x + 3 } + 5\)
• C) It is the graph of \(f ( x ) = \sqrt { x }\) translated 3 units to the left and translated 5 units up. The equation is \(y = \sqrt { x - 3 } - 5\)
• D) It is the graph of \(f ( x ) = \sqrt { x }\) translated 3 units to the left and translated 5 units up. The equation is \(y = \sqrt { x - 3 } + 5\)
