Question

A.) Reflect the parent function over the y-axis, and translate it 3 units to the right.

Answer 1

Its very hard to explain it with out a visual representation but if you put that in standard for to translate it into slope intercept form and put it on the grid the rest should be a piece of cake.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cubic parent function is

$f(x)=\sqrt[3]{x}$

The given function is

$h(x)=-\sqrt[3]{x+8}$

It i can be written as

$h(x)=-f(x+8)$                .... (1)

The function h(x) is negative of function f(x+8), therefore the graph of parent function reflected over the x-axis.

The translation is defined as

$h(x)=f(x+a)+b$                .... (2)

Where, a is horizontal shift and b is vertical shift.

If a>0, then the graph shifts a units left and if a<0, then the graph shifts a units right.

If b>0, then the graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then the graph shifts b units down.

From (1) and (2) we get

$a=8,b=0$

Since a=8>0, therefore the graph shifts 8 units left.

The graph of parent function reflected over the x-axis, and translate it 8 units to the left.

Therefore the correct option is D.
