Answer:

It is multiplied by
√(2) and reflected about the y-axis.

Explanation:

In order to transform the graph of
√(x) into the graph
√(-2x), we have to multiply it by
√(2) so that it becomes
√(2x).Then we have to reflect it over the y-axis, and we do this by multiplying its domain by -1. This gives us
√(2x).
