1st quadrant...

Lies on $y$ - axis

Now sketching $y = sqrt(x-3)$ : This is just $y= sqrt(x)$ translated by 3 to the right...

enter image source here

So looking at this image we see that the fucntion $y = sqrt(x-3)$ lies in the $color(red)("1st quadrant "$

And it $color(blue)("lies on the y axis at (3,0) " )$

Which quadrants and axes does f(x)=sqrt(x-3)f(x)=sqrt(x-3) pass through?
