Question

For the parent function y=sqrt x what effect does a value of k = 10 have on the graph?

Answer 1

well, you should have been given some direction as to what variable represents what. typically it's like this:
g(x)=a⋅f(x−h)+k
were you given something like this and direction as to what a, h and k did to the function?

Answer 2

if a = -1 then all of the positive y values become negative and vise versa. what would that do to the graph?

Answer 3

so now all of the positive x values become negative and vise versa... what would it do to the graph?

Answer 4

ooops, y values, not x values.

Answer 5

it reflects about the x axis (like a reflection of the mountains in a lake).
