Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's think about what values you can take square root of...

So the first one is not correct because you can also take square root of 0,

squareroot of 0 is 0.

So because of this, C and D are both correct, E is correct because root  x is an increasing function. B is incorrect because (0,0) is an intercept.
