Describe the change to the parent function. (y = sqrt x) I am not good at this and I don't really know how to describe each parent function.

8. y = - sqrt x - 5
9. y = 4 sqrt x + 3 -1
10. y = -1/3 sqrt x -1 + 3

HI!!

misty1212 · Answer

i am not understanding so much either, but if you have 
$$y=2\sqrt{x-5}$$ i guess the parent function is $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$

misty1212 · Answer

is it "change to" the parent function or "change the parent function to get the new one"?
