Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When the question comes with answer choices, please share them.   In this case it sounds like there were four graphs from which to choose.

f(x) = |x^2 − x − 2| is always zero or greater, due to the absolute value function.

x^2 − x − 2 = 0 factors to (x - 2)(x + 1) = 0, so the zeros of f(x) are {-1, 2}.

Plot x-intercepts {-1, 2}.  The axis of symmetry is the vertical line x = 1/2, which is precisely halfway between the x-intercepts.  If we now choose the test number x = 0, we find the value of f(0) to be |-2}, which tells us that the y-intercept is (0, |-2|), or (0, 2), so we have a parabolic curve opening down between x = -1 and x = 2 and touching (but not crossing) the x-axis at those x-values. To the left of x = -1 the curve increases steadily from y = 0 in Quadrant II; to the right of x = 2, the curve increases steadily from y = 0 in Quadrant I.

Answer:

From another Brainly user's answer it sounds as if the answer is Graph D. Because it looks like a Parabola.

What are the x-intercepts of 4x^ + 8x - 5
mojhsa [17]
Assuming the exponent is supposed to be "^2" your equation will read:

4x² + 8x - 5

It must set equal to y to be a valid function and the y must be set equal to zero to find x-intercepts.

4x² + 8x - 5 = 0
4x² - 2x + 10x - 5 = 0
2x(2x - 1) + 5(2x - 1) = 0

(2x + 5)(2x - 1) = 0

Set each binomial equal to zero.

2x + 5 = 0
2x = 0 - 5
2x = - 5
Divide both sides by 2
x = - 5/2

2x - 1 = 0
2x = 0 + 1
2x = 1
x = 1/2

Your x-intercepts are x = - 5/2, 1/2 or (- 5/2, 0) and (1/2, 0)
