Do Now: Write the recursive formula for the following problems or write the pattern. • a1= -3, an = an-1 +3 • a1= -2, an = 2an-1 • 256, 64, 16, 4, 1 … • 3, 7, 11, 15, 19
Objective: • To graph square root functions.
Vocab. • A radical expression is an expression that contains a radical sign. • If the radical is a square root then it’s called a square root function.
Graph a function of the form y = a x EXAMPLE 1 Graph the function y = 3 xand identify its domain and range. Compare the graph with the graph of y = x. SOLUTION Make a table. Because the square root of a negative number is undefined, x must be nonnegative. So, the domain is x ≥ 0. STEP 1 Plot the points. STEP 2
Graph a function of the form y = a x Compare the graph with the graph of y = x. The graph ofy = 3 xis a vertical stretch (by a factor of 3) of the graph of y = x. EXAMPLE 1 STEP 3 Draw a smooth curve through the points. From either the table or the graph, you can see the range of the function is y ≥ 0. STEP 4
The range is y ≤ 0.The graph of y = –0.5 xis a vertical shrink (by a factor of 0.5) with a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of y = x. EXAMPLE 2 Graph a function of the form y = a x Graph the function y = –0.5 xand identify its domain and range. Compare the graph with the graph of y = x. SOLUTION To graph the function, make a table, plot the points, and draw a smooth curve through the points. The domain is x ≥ 0.
The range is y ≥ 2.The graph of y = x + 2is a vertical translation (of 2 units up) of the graph of y = x. EXAMPLE 3 Graph a function of the form y = x + k Graph the function y = x+ 2 and identify its domain and range. Compare the graph with the graph of y = x. SOLUTION To graph the function, make a table, then plot and connect the points. The domain is x ≥ 0.

ANSWER for Examples 1, 2 and 3 GUIDED PRACTICE Graph the functionand identify its domain and range. Compare the graph with the graph of y = x. y = 3. x + 3 Domain: x ≥ 0, Range: y ≤ 0 Vertical translation of 3 units up
Graph a function of the form y = x – h EXAMPLE 4 Graph the function y = x – 4 and identify its domain and range. Compare the graph with the graph of y = x. SOLUTION To graph the function, make a table, then plot and connect the points. To find the domain, find the values of x for which the radicand, x – 4 , is nonnegative. The domain is x ≥ 4.
x The range is y ≥ 0.The graph of y = x – 4 is a horizontal translation (of 4 units to the right) of the graph of y = . EXAMPLE 4 Graph a function of the form y = x – h
Sketch the graph of y = 2. Shift the graph h units horizontally and k units vertically. Notice that x y = 2 – 1 = 2 x – (–4) + (–1). x + 4 x + 4 EXAMPLE 5 Graph a function of the form y = a x – h + k Graph the function y = 2 – 1 . SOLUTION STEP 1 STEP 2 So, h = –4 and k = –1. Shift the graph left 4 units and down 1 unit.
