Solution:

Given the function:


f(x)=√(x+4)

whose graph is shown below:

Suppose that the parent function is expressed as


f(x)=√(x)

This implies that the parent function is transformed by a horizontal shift to the left by four spaces.

The correct option is

Which transformation occurred to create the graph shown below from square root parent-example-1
Which transformation occurred to create the graph shown below from square root parent-example-2
