Answer:

Horizontal Compression, Right 1, Down 3.

Explanation:

Given:

The transformed function is,
f(x)=√(3x-3)-3

Let the parent function be
g(x) =√(x)

Now, in order to transform
g(x) to
f(x), we need to perform the following transformations:

1.
g(x)\rightarrow g(3x)=√(3x).

Multiplying a positive number to the
x
value of the function leads in horizontal compression.

2.
g(3x)\rightarrow g(3(x-1))=√(3(x-1))=√(3x-3)

Adding a negative number to
x
leads to a right shift of the function.

Here, the graph shifts right by 1 unit.

3.
g(3(x-1))\rightarrow g(3(x-1)-3)=√(3x-3)-3

Adding a negative number to the function results in downward movement of the graph. Here, the graph moves down by 3 units.

Therefore, the order of correct transformations are:

Horizontal compression, Right shift by 1 units and then Down shift by 3 units.
