All that we used in transformations of graphs of linear and square functions, can be applyed to the graphs of radical functions.
If we are adding or subtracting a number from the x, than the function will translate left and right.
If we are adding or subtracting a number from the y, than the function will translate up and down.
Same goes for reflecting given functions across x-axis, y-axis and the (0,0) point.
