f(x)=y=√x looks something like this:

(4,2)

(9,3)

(16,4)

Whilst your graph is much higher slope, for lack of better term

Rules of transformation

f(x)+b - function is shifted b units upward (up y-axis)

f(x)-b - function is shifted b units downward (down y-axis)

f(x+b) - function is shifted b units to the left (negative x-axis)

f(x-b) - function is shifted b units to the right (positive x-axis)

-f(x) - function is reflected over x-axis

f(-x) - function is reflected over y-axis

bf(x) - vertical stretch for |b| > 1, vertical shrink for 0< |b| <1

f(bx) - horizontal shrink for |b| > 1, horizontal stretch for 0< |b| <1
