The discriminate is b^2 - 4*a*c
The general equation for a quadratic is ax^2 + bx + c
In this equation's case
a = 1
b= -5
c = - 3
Solve
(-5)^2 - 4*(1)*(-3)
25 - (-12)
25 + 12
37
Note
Since the discriminate is > 0, the roots are real and different. The roots do exist and there are 2 of them.
Answer:
f(x) is reflected over the x-axis and vertically scaled by a factor of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
If you compare the two functions, you see that ...
g(x) = -3f(x)
Multiplication by -1 effects a reflection over the x-axis. (All y-values are transformed to their opposite.)
Multiplication by 3 is a vertical scaling by a factor of 3.
Taken together, f(x) is reflected over the x-axis and vertically scaled by a factor of 3.
The correct answer to this is 5,6,7, good luck
