Answer:
y = -(x+1)^2 +3
Step-by-step explanation:
Translating f(x) left by 1 unit replaces x with x+1.
Translating f(x) up by 3 units replaces f(x) with f(x)+3.
Reflecting f(x) over the x-axis replaces f(x) with -f(x).
__
When y = x^2 is reflected over the x-axis, it becomes ...
y = -x^2
When y = -x^2 is translated 1 unit left, it becomes ...
y = -(x +1)^2
When y = -(x+1)^2 is translated 3 units up, it becomes ...
y = -(x +1)^2 +3
Answer:
- zeros: x = -3, -1, +2.
- end behavior: as x approaches -∞, f(x) approaches -∞.
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to use a graphing calculator for finding the zeros of higher order polynomials. The attachment shows them to be at x = -3, -1, +2.
__
The zeros can also be found by trial and error, trying the choices offered by the rational root theorem: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6. It is easiest to try ±1. Doing so shows that -1 is a root, and the residual quadratic is ...
x² +x -6
which factors as (x -2)(x +3), so telling you the remaining roots are -3 and +2.
___
For any odd-degree polynomial with a positive leading coefficient, the sign of the function will match the sign of x when the magnitude of x gets large. Thus as x approaches negative infinity, so does f(x).
