Question

When simplified and written in standard form, which quadratic function is equivalent to the polynomial shown?

Answer 1

Answer:

2c^2 - 2c - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Next time, please share the answer choices.  Thank you.

Group together the 'c' terms in 2 + 7c – 4c2 – 3c + 4:

                                                     2  + 4c and -4c^2 + 4  Then we have:

-4c^2 + 4c + 6

We should reduce this by factoring -2 out of all three terms:

2c^2 - 2c - 3  This is the desired quadratic in standard form.
