Math, microeconomics or criminal justice
y= sqr(x+1)
is upper half of
y^2 = x+1
it's a horizontal parabola, opening to the right
y=+ or - sqr(x+1) is the full parabola
y = +ssqr(x+1) is the upper half
with vertex = (-1, 0)
general formula is y = sqr(x+h)+k where (h,k) = vertex = (-1,0) for this problem
