I cant even see the picture clearly
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of the function f(x) at x=a can be determined by substituting a instead of x into the function expression.
1. When x=-1, then
f(-1)=2\cdot (-1)^3-3\cdot (-1)^2+7=-2-3+7=2.
2. When x=1, then
f(1)=2\cdot 1^3-3\cdot 1^2+7=2-3+7=6.
3. When x=2, then
f(-1)=2\cdot 2^3-3\cdot 2^2+7=16-12+7=11.
Answer: Because the a-value is negative.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The vertex form of a quadratic equation is: y = a(x - h)² + k where
- "a" is the vertical stretch
- -a is a reflection over the x-axis
- h is the horizontal shift (positive = right, negative = left)
- k is the vertical shift (positive = up, negative = down)
Given: g(x) = - (x + 1)² - 3
↓
a= -1
Since the a-value is negative, the parabola will be reflected over the x-axis which will change the curve from (U-shaped) to (∩-shaped).
The answer is probably -2
