Answer:

Square Root, Greatest Integer

Explanation:

Functions can be symmetrical in two ways: They can be symmetrical across a line or symmetrical across a point.

In a Square root function, when reflected across the y-axis, the graph has no symmetry because -x returns a different value when plugged into the function.

For a Greatest Integer function, with
\lfloor x \rfloor, if we change the value of x to -x and we floor -x, we get a different value than the original.

Hope this helped!
