Answer:
[tex]f(x)=\sqrt{x+5}-3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given function for graph: [tex]f(x)=\sqrt{x-h}+k[/tex]
Therefore, the parent function is [tex]f(x)=\sqrt{x}[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=\sqrt{x-h}+k[/tex] can be obtained by translating [tex]f(x)=\sqrt{x}[/tex] to [tex]h[/tex] units to the right and [tex]k[/tex] units up
The x and y intercept of [tex]f(x)=\sqrt{x}[/tex] is the origin
Therefore, this graph has been translated 5 units to the left and 3 units down.
Therefore, [tex]h=-5[/tex] and [tex]k=-3[/tex]
Substituting these values into the given function:
[tex]\implies f(x)=\sqrt{x-(-5)}+(-3)[/tex]
[tex]\implies f(x)=\sqrt{x+5}-3[/tex]
