Answer

(a) reflect $f(x)$ about $x$-axis and shift up 1 unit (a) reflect $f(x)$ about $y$-axis and shift up 1 unit

Work Step by Step

(a) We can obtain $g(x)=-\sqrt{x}+1$ by reflecting the graph of $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ about the $x$-axis and shifting the graph up 1 unit. (b) We can obtain $g(x)=\sqrt{-x}+1$ by reflecting the graph of $f(x)=\sqrt{x}$ about the $y$-axis and shifting the graph up 1 unit.
