With a #c#-value of #5#, the function translates #5# units up.

Explanation:

This is very simple.

The only difference is the #c#-value.

This value controls the vertical translation of the function. With a #5# value, the function translates #5# units up.

Thus, we get this:

Desmos

It's hard to read because I don't know how to do it on the Socratic system so I used Desmos Graphing Calculator.

The red line is the function: #f(x)=sqrtx +5#.

Hope this helps :)
