Answer:
stretched by a factor of 2, reflected over the y-axis, and translated 9 units left
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is [tex]y=\sqrt{-4x-36}[/tex]
We can rewrite this function by factoring -4 in the radicand to get:
[tex]y=\sqrt{-4(x+9)}[/tex]
We further simplify the square root of 4 to get:
[tex]y=2\sqrt{-(x+9)[/tex]
The parent function is [tex]y=\sqrt{x}[/tex]
When we compare to the parent function, there is a stretch by a factor of 2, reflection over the y-axis, and translation 9 units left
The last option is correct
