Try putting x=0 and see what is the y-intercept

then it would just be y=sqrt 4
zepdrix (zepdrix):
Which is.... 2 right?
That gives you one of the coordinate pairs of your function.
It passes through (0,2).
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so the answer would be c?
zepdrix (zepdrix):
Mmm ya good job!
The + 4 is shifting the function 4 to the left.

can you help with another one?

Wait what? I thought the equation is square root of x plus 4. If x is 0 then the intercept is 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):
soooooooo the answer isn't c??
OpenStudy (wolfe8):
No. The graph will go through (0,4) instead of (0,2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so its a?

Something is wrong. I can't find that graph. Can you re-check the equation? Is it square root of x and added to 4 or the square root of the sum of x and 4?
zepdrix (zepdrix):
It's y= sqrt{x+4}

Err at least I assume so :P heh

Ah my bad then. What you did is correct. Sorry the way you wrote it was confusing. You should have written it as Zep did: y= sqrt(x+4) The answer is C.
