INCREASING AND DECREASING INTERVALS FOR SQUARE ROOT FUNCTION WORKSHEET

Is the function increasing or decreasing on its domain and describe the transformations from the graph of f (x) = √x to the graph of h. Then graph h.

Problem 1 :

Solution

Problem 2 :

Solution

Problem 3 :

Solution

Answer Key

1)  There is no reflection, then as x increase the value of y will also increase. It must be increasing function in the interval [1, ∞).

2)  b is negative, reflection across y-axis. Decreasing in the interval (-∞, 0].

3)  a is negative, reflection across x-axis. Decreasing in the interval [3, ∞).

Find the domain and range for the square root functions given below.

Problem 1 :

f(x) = √(x - 4) - 10

Solution

Problem 2 :

f(x)=34x+12+3

Solution

Problem 3 :

f(x) = √(x + 3) + 2

Solution

Problem 4 :

f(x) = 2√(x - 5) - 6

Solution

Problem 5 :

f(x) = -√(5x)

Solution

Problem 6 :

f(x) = √(x + 1)

Solution

Problem 7 :

f(x) = -√(2x) + 2

Solution

Problem 8 :

f(x) = √(x + 2) + 5

Solution

Problem 9 :

f(x) = √(x - 4) - 6

Solution

Problem 10 :

f(x) = -√(x - 6) + 5

Solution
