\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Stretch by factor of 0.5 is not stretch but shrink.
\n" ); document.write( "HORIZONTAL \"stretch\" is \"0.5y%5E2=x\", and you are interested in the upper branch.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Reflect in the y-axis,
\n" ); document.write( "\"-%281%2F2%29y%5E2=x\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Shift two units to the left,
\n" ); document.write( "\"-%281%2F2%29y%5E2=x%2B2\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Simplify this back into y as a function of x.
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%5E2=-2x-4\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28y=sqrt%28-2x-4%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is the upper branch of the function.
\n" ); document.write( "Clearly understand that the expression within the square root function is NOT a negative value. You have a domain which relies on \"-2x-4%3E=0\",
\n" ); document.write( "\"-4%3E=2x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2%3E=x\"------the domain.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Aside from that, you can still adjust the equation as \"y=sqrt%28%28-2%29%28x%2B2%29%29\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
