Answer:

C. where the start point is on (3,0) and goes up and to the right

Explanation:

y= √x−3

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

√x−3 =y

Square both sides of the equation.

x−3=y^2

Add 3 to both sides of the equation.

x−3−(−3)=y^2 −(−3)

Subtracting −3 from itself leaves 0.

x=y^2 −(−3)

Subtract −3 from y^2.

x=y^2 +3
