for the parent function y=3^ square root of x, what effect does a value of h = -6 have on the graph?

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

don't ever say `3rd square root` , say instead `cube root`

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay i didnt know

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

y=∛x

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

and I gtg right now -:( I might be back today and might not.

OpenStudy (agreene):

well, h isnt one of the 2 variables in the equation, (y and x) so i would guess that making h any value wouldnt change anything

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

have you learned conics like y-k= a(x-h)^2 for example

OpenStudy (anonymous):

maybe that's the "h" they're asking for.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k is the one doing vertical translation, h is the one doing horizontal translations

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help with this one too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hm hold on, can I rephrase th first answer? h shifts left by 6 unit since the given formula is x-h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then when h is pos, it shifts right when h is neg, it shifts left sinc h= -2 , shift left by 2 units.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the second one would shift left by 2 and rght by four?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and k = 4 so shifts up by 4 units.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the a and b?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

h is one to the right and k is down four

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, a is the stretch of the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the graph stretches vertically by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and the negative in front of 2 makes it reflect across the x axis.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you have time you should search up about conics, it helps. I gtg now
