Answer:
The answer to your question is picture 1
Step-by-step explanation:
- This is a quadratic equation, so we look for a parabola. The four graphs show parabolas.
- We can notice a negative sign before the term (x - 3)², which indicates that it is a down-parabola. We discard the second and the fourth pictures.
- Get the vertex
y = -(x - 3)² - 5
y + 5 = - (x - 3)² Vertex = (-5, 3)
because we change signs
- With all this information, we conclude that the answer is picture 1 because its vertex is (-5, 3)
