Answer:
m(u) = -0.25(u +2)² +1 or -0.25u² -u
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is fairly easily written in vertex form, as the vertex point is on a grid line intersection at (-2, 1). The parabola opens downward, so the scale factor is negative.
The vertical change from the vertex is only a fraction of a unit when u differs from the vertex by 1. It is 1 unit when u differs from the vertex by 2, so the magnitude of the vertical scale factor is 1/2² = 1/4.
Our equation will be of the form ...
m(u) = (vertical scale factor)(u - (horizontal vertex location))² + (vertical vertex location)
For this graph, the equation is ...
m(u) = -0.25(u +2)² +1
or, simplifying, we get ...
m(u) = -0.25u² -u
Answer:
C. <em>c</em> is less than zero
Step-by-step explanation:
The parent radical function y=x^(1/n) has its point of inflection at the origin. The graph shows that point of inflection has been translated left and down.
<h3>Function transformation</h3>
The transformation of the parent function y=x^(1/n) into the function ...
f(x) = a(x +k)^(1/n) +c
represents the following transformations:
- vertical scaling by a factor of 'a'
- left shift by k units
- up shift by c units
<h3>Application</h3>
The location of the inflection point at (-3, -4) indicates it has been shifted left 3 units, and down 4 units. In the transformed function equation, this means ...
The graph says the value of c is less than zero.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Apparently, the value of 'a' is 2, and the value of n is 3. The equation of the graph seems to be ...
f(x) = 2(x +3)^(1/3) -4
