You can determine this by finding zeros of quadratic function,

$(x-1)(x+4)=0\implies x_1=1, x_2=-4$ .

Which eliminates first and third option.

Now we have up and down parabolas left.

If we factor $(x-1)(x+4)=x^2+4x+\dots$ we find that the coefficient before $x^2$ determines how it is turned, since its positive its an upward turned parabola hence the answer is the last graph.

Hope this helps.

To the nearest tenth, find the perimeter of ABC with vertices A (-2,-2) B (0,5) and C (3,1)

Pavlova-9 [17]

the perimeter will then just be the sum of the distances of A, B and C, namely AB + BC + CA.

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}\\\\A(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\qquadB(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})\qquad \qquadd = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{[0-(-2)]^2+[5-(-2)]^2}\implies AB=\sqrt{(0+2)^2+(5+2)^2}\\\\\\AB=\sqrt{4+49}\implies \boxed{AB=\sqrt{53}}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\B(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})\qquad C(\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1})\\\\\\BC=\sqrt{(3-0)^2+(1-5)^2}\implies BC=\sqrt{3^2+(-4)^2}$

$\bf BC=\sqrt{9+16}\implies \boxed{BC=5}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\C(\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1})\qquad A(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\\\\\\CA=\sqrt{(-2-3)^2+(-2-1)^2}\implies CA=\sqrt{(-5)^2+(-3)^2}\\\\\\CA=\sqrt{25+9}\implies \boxed{CA=\sqrt{34}}\\\\[-0.35em]\rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\~\hfill \stackrel{AB+BC+CA}{\approx 18.11}~\hfill$
