Verified Answer :

Answer:

The equation that represents the transformation function is:

                        \(y=-\sqrt{x}+2\)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a parent function f(x) as:

\(f(x)=\sqrt{x}\)

Now, this function f(x) is transformed to get a function whose graph is given.

Let the transformed function is: g(x)

Clearly by looking at the graph we observe that at x=4 we have:

g(x)=0

2)

\(y=\sqrt{-x}+2\)

at x=4 , we have:

\(y=\sqrt{-4}+2\)

As the term under the square root is negative hence, we will get the function's value as imaginary value and not real.

Hence, Option (2) is incorrect.

3)

\(y=\sqrt{-x}-2\)

at x=4 , we have:

\(y=\sqrt{-4}-2\)

As the term under the square root is negative hence, we will get the function's value as imaginary value and not real.

Hence, Option (3) is incorrect.

4)

\(y=-\sqrt{x}-2\)

at x=4 , we have:

\(y=-\sqrt{4}-2\\\\y=-2-2\\\\y=-4 eq 0\)

Hence, option (4) is incorrect.

1)

\(y=-\sqrt{x}+2\)

at x=4 , we have:

\(y=-\sqrt{4}+2\\\\y=-2+2\\\\y=0\)

Hence, option (1) is the correct answer.
