The vertex of a parabola is (-1.5, -12.5), and its y-intercept is (0, -8)

Mathematics

Olenka [21]3 years ago

Best to find the equation of the parabola first:

Its equation is y+12.5 = (x+1.5)^2, or y = -12.5 + (x+1.5)^2

Check the first possible x-intercept:  let x = -2.  Does y come out to 0?

y = -12.5 + (-0.5)^2  =  -12.5 + 0.25.  This is not equal to 0, so (-2,0) is not an x-intercept of this parabola.  Continue checking each possible x-intercept until you find the right one (or ones).

The function f(x) is graphed below.
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

f(1) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is a function of x, that is;

y = f(x)

f(1) implies the value of y when x = 1.

To obtain this value we draw the vertical line x = 1 and check where the line intersects the graph of f(x).

In this case, the line x = 1 will intersect with the graph of f(x) on the line y = 2. The function f(x) assumes the value 2 between x = 0 and x = 4. Therefore,

f(1) = 2
