10-5 Graphing Square Root Functions Vocabulary: Square Root Function
Square Root Functions A square root function is a function containing a square root with the independent variable in the radicand. The parent square root function is: y = √x . The table and graph below show the parent square root function.
Essential Understanding • You can graph a square root function by plotting points or using a translation of the parent square root function. • For real numbers, the value of the radicand cannot be negative. So the domain of a square root function is limited to values of x for which the radicand is greater than or equal to 0.
Finding the Domain of a Square Root Function • What is the domain of the function y = 2√(3x-9) ? 3x – 9 ≥ 0 The radicand cannot be negative 3x ≥ 9 Solve for x x ≥ 3 The domain of the function is the set of real numbers greater than or equal to 3.
You Do! What is the domain of: y = x ≤ 2.5
Graphing a Square Root Function Graph the function: I = ⅕√P, which gives the current I in amperes for a certain circuit with P watts of power. When will the current exceed 2 amperes? Step 1: Make a Table
Graphing a Square Root Function Graph the function: I = ⅕√P, which gives the current I in amperes for a certain circuit with P watts of power. When will the current exceed 2 amperes? Step 1: Plot the points on a graph. The current will exceed 2 amperes when the power is more than 100 watts
You Do! When will the current in the previous example exceed 1.5 amperes? 56.25 watts 1.5 = ⅕√P Substitute 1.5 for I 7.5 = √P Multiply by 5 (7.5)2 = (√P)2 Square both sides 56.25 = P Simplify
Graphing a Vertical Translation For any number k, graphing y = (√x )+ k translates the graph of y = √x up k units. Graphing y = (√x)– k translates the graph of y = √x down k units.

You Do! What is the graph of y = (√x) – 3 ?
Graphing a Horizontal Translation For any positive number h, graphing y = translates the graph of y = √x to the left h units. Graphing y = translates the graph of y = √x to the right h units.
