I have to graph each function and state it's domain and range.
\n" ); document.write( "y = sqrt(x+1)+4
\n" ); document.write( "**
\n" ); document.write( "y=√(x+1)+4
\n" ); document.write( "Domain:
\n" ); document.write( "Since there are no denominators, the only restriction is in the radical.
\n" ); document.write( "In all sqrts, the radican must be≥0
\n" ); document.write( "x+1≥0
\n" ); document.write( "x≥-1
\n" ); document.write( "Domain:[-1,∞)
\n" ); document.write( "Range:[4,∞) (basic √x curve bumped up 4 units)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "Graphing:
\n" ); document.write( "Start with the basic √x with points at (0,0), (1,1) (9,3) and (16,4)
\n" ); document.write( "Move x coordinates one unit to the left (-1,0), (0,1) (8,3) and (15,4)
\n" ); document.write( "Finally, add 4 units to the y-coordinate: (-1,4), (0,5) (8,7) and (15,8)
\n" ); document.write( "In effect, you are shifting the basic √x curve one unit to the left and raising it 4 units vertically.
