What does the parameter 'a' in the square root function affect?

Back

The parameter 'a' affects the vertical stretch or compression and the direction of the graph. If 'a' is positive, the graph opens upwards; if negative, it opens downwards.

Changing 'h' shifts the graph horizontally. If 'h' increases, the graph shifts to the right; if 'h' decreases, it shifts to the left.

Changing 'k' shifts the graph vertically. If 'k' increases, the graph shifts up; if 'k' decreases, it shifts down.
