Question

In two or more complete sentences, identify the parent function, and describe the transformations that were applied to

obtain the graph, f(x) = √2x+6 -1

Answer 1

The parent function is g(x)=√x, referred to as the square root function. The new graph of f(x) is obtained by dilating the parent function by a scale of two and shifting the graph left 6 and down 1.
