In which direction does the graph of the function shown below open?

Mathematics

Answer:

D. Up

Step-by-step explanation:

When a parabola has the form  y=ax^2+bx+c , It is vertical (opens up or down).

Because the variable "x" is squared.

If  "a" is positive, then the parabola opens up, but if it is negative, then the parabola opens down.

In this case you have the quadratic function:

f(x) = 2x^2+5x-4

Which can be rewritten as:

 y = 2x^2+5x-4

Therefore, it is vertical, because it has the form:  y=ax^2+bx+c

You can observe that the value of "a" is:

a=2

Then, since "a" is positive, the parabola opens up.

What does the dotted line in the diagram imply about the number of triangles you can construct from the given information
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:A triangle is aptly named: it is composed of three (tri) angles formed by three non-coincident, non-parallel lines. That the lines are non-coincident means they do not overlap, and that they are non-parallel means that each line intersects with every other line. Correspondingly, a triangle also has three sides.
