ANSWER

EXPLANATION
The parent square root function is

The translation

Will shift the graph of f(x) k units to left.
The translation

will shift the graph of f(x) to the right by k units.
Therefore if f(x) is shifted 4 units to the left its new equation is:

The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope.
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4
B. y = 4x + 9
C. y = x + 18
D. y = 3x + 22
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept?
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10.
That leaves us with A and B.
Which has the closest approximation of the slope?
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15.
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.
Therefore, the answer is
B) y= 4x + 9
