Explain how to rewrite the function shown in order to determine the transformation of the parent function. Then, describe the transformation of the graph compared to the parent function.

Question illustration
Answer:

To determine the transformation of the parent function, first rewrite the given function by factoring − 8 −8 from the radicand. Taking the cube root of − 8 −8 allows you to place − 2 −2 in front of the radical symbol, which makes it easier to see the transformations. Compared to the parent cube root function, the graph is reflected over both the x-axis and the y-axis due to the negative factors. It is also vertically stretched by a factor of 2, making it steeper than the parent function. Finally, the graph is translated 1 2 2 1 ​ unit to the left, shifting it slightly along the x-axis. This rewritten form allows you to clearly identify all the transformations applied to the parent function
