Question

The parent function f(x)=√x is transformed to g(x) = f(-x) - 2. Which graph represents g(x)?

Answer 1

Using translation concepts, the graph of g(x) is given at the end of the question.

What is a translation?

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.

The parent function is given by:

$f(x) = \sqrt{x}$.

With the changes, we have that:

• f(-x) is the function reflected over the y-axis.

• f(-x) - 2 is the function reflected over the y-axis and shifted 2 units down.

Hence the function will be given by:

$f(x) = \sqrt{-x} - 2$.

The graph is given at the end of the answer.
