Respuesta :
"sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
So writing "sqrt(x)" means "square root of x"
The original function is f(x) = sqrt(x)
The answer is g(x) = -sqrt(x)
All we do is stick a negative in front to flip all the y coordinates from positive to negative. For instance, the point (9,3) is on f(x) while (9,-3) is on g(x). All that changes is the y coordinate from positive to negative. The x coordinate stays he same.

Hello there,
A reflection over the x changes negative to positive and positive to negative. So the reflection would make it f(x) = -square root of x.
Hope I helped :)
