Answer:
4.5732 %
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the next quadratic function:

to sketch its graph, first, we need to find its vertex. The x-coordinate of the vertex is found as follows:

where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are the first two coefficients of the quadratic function. Substituting with a = 2 and b = 3, we get:

The y-coordinate of the vertex is found by substituting the x-coordinate in the quadratic function, as follows:

The factorization indicates that the curve crosses the x-axis at the points (-2, 0) and (1/2, 0). We also know that the curve crosses the y-axis at (0,-2). Connecting these points and the vertex (-0.75, -3.125) with a U-shaped curve, we get:
Answer:
A = 12 units ^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the trapezoid is found by
A = 1/2 (b1+b2)h
b1 = 2
b2 = 4
h = 4
I found these by looking at the graph
A = 1/2(2+4) 4
A = 1/2(6*4)
A = 12 units ^2
