Here are the correct matches for the given parent functions:

  • Logarithmic: 3) \( y = \log_{b}x \)
  • Cubic: 5) \( y = x^3 \)
  • Linear: 2) \( y = x \)
  • Cube Root: 7) \( y = 3 \sqrt{x} \) (Note: while the coefficient 3 changes the vertical stretch, the function is still a cube root function)
  • Quadratic: 1) \( y = x^2 \)
  • Square Root: 6) \( y = \sqrt{x} \)
  • Exponential: 4) \( y = b^x \)
