Graphing Radical Functions: Domain and Range Insights

What happens to the graph of a radical function when a negative sign is placed in front of the radical?

• It reflects over the y-axis

• It reflects over the x-axis

• It shifts to the right

• No change occurs

For a function reflected over the y-axis and shifted up, in which quadrant will the graph primarily lie?

• Quadrant II

• Quadrant I

• Quadrant III

• Quadrant IV

When a radical function is reflected over the origin, what signs are associated with x and y?

• x is positive, y is negative

• x is negative, y is positive

• x is positive, y is positive

What determines the new origin of a graph after it has been shifted?

• The coefficient of x

• The subtraction or addition inside the radical

• The reflection over the x or y-axis

• The multiplication factor outside the radical

How does adding a number inside the radical affect the graph of a radical function?

• Reflects it over the y-axis

• Shifts it to the left

• Shifts it to the right

• Reflects it over the x-axis
