Here we want to know the expression in the new funtion

Let s look at the difference between the two functions so as to be clear with the situation.

The funtion f(x) starts at the origin.

Looking at the function h(x), we can see that it starts out at the point x = -6

We can use these starting point to actually predict what the function will look like

In this case, the function h(x) has its expression as


h(x)\text{ = }\sqrt[]{x\text{ + 6}}

Option B is the correct option for the function h(x)
