@ganeshie8 
6 and 21

ganeshie8 · Answer

changing f(x) to f(x-k) 

shifts the graph to "right" by "k" units

ganeshie8 · Answer

based on that, can you guess the answer for #6 ?

anonymous · Answer

C?

ganeshie8 · Answer

nope

anonymous · Answer

B?

ganeshie8 · Answer

nope, are you using the hint i provided you ?

anonymous · Answer

looked at the wrong problem. D

ganeshie8 · Answer

Yes!
y = sqrt(x-4) shifts the graph of y = sqrt(x) to right by 4 units

anonymous · Answer

ok. thank you. Can you help me with 21

ganeshie8 · Answer

here i have graphed y = sqrt(x) https://www.desmos.com/calculator/ixniqvz9rr

ganeshie8 · Answer

click that link and enter y = sqrt(x) + 5 on the left side

you will get another graph

ganeshie8 · Answer

compare them
