Question

Given a = -1, h = 4, and k = -2, what is the equation of the graph if the parent function is y equals the square root of x?

Answer 1

I don't know what a,h, and k stand for.

Answer 2

its the radical formula but for square roots

Answer 3

I need you to explain what a,h, and k represent.

Answer 4

like is it like
\[y=a \sqrt{x-h}+k\]
or
\[y=a\sqrt{x+h}-k\]
or\[y=h \sqrt{x-a}+k\]
there is so many different things I could say a,h ,and k are

Answer 5

This question makes no sense unless you define what a,h, and k are
There are not universal understand on these values

Answer 6

understanding*

Answer 7

yes is tht

Answer 9

The first one:
\[y=a \sqrt{x-h}+k\]
?

Answer 10

well if this is it and you are asked to find the equation then you have your work cut out for you

Answer 11

since a,h, and k are given

Answer 12

and all you have to do is replace the letters in that equation above

Answer 13

Good job explaining @myininaya
