Will give

given the parent function of y=the square root of x, state the type of transformation that occured to get the function y=negative square root of x.

a.
vertical shrink
b.
vertical stretch
c.
reflection over the x-axis
d.
reflection over the y-axis

We are given the functions  and .

let's consider some pairs in the graph of both functions.

 in   we have (-2, 4), (2, 4), (3, 9), (-5, 25)

    in   we have (-2, -4), (2, -4), (3, -9), (-5, -25)

so for the same values of x, we have y's of equal value, but different sign.

This means that the functions are the reflections of each other with respect to the x-axis.
