Question

Find the horizontal and vertical shift of y=Sqrt x+2-3

Answer 1

Answer: Left 2, Down 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=\sqrt{x+2}-3$

To find the horizontal shift, set the values under the root equal to 0

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

This means the functions is shifted left 2 units

To find the vertical shift, look at the -3

This means the graph is shifted down 3 units.
