Answers:</h3>
A) y intercept is (0,3)
C) Axis of symmetry is x = -1
D) Vertex is (-1, 4)
So basically everything but choice B is true.
========================================
Explanation:
Choice A is true because plugging in x = 0 leads to y = 3. Effectively, anything with an x goes away when x = 0 leaving that 3 behind. So finding the y intercept in this form is fairly fast.
-------------------
To check choices B through D, let's convert the equation into vertex form.
y = -1x^2 - 2x + 3 is in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c where
a = -1
b = -2
c = 3
The vertex is located at (h,k) such that h = -b/(2a)
Plug the values of 'a' and 'b' into the equation below
h = -b/(2a)
h = -(-2)/(2*(-1))
h = 2/(-2)
h = -1
The x coordinate of the vertex is x = -1
Then use this to find the y coordinate of the vertex
y = -1x^2 - 2x + 3
y = -1(-1)^2 - 2(-1) + 3
y = 4
The y coordinate of the vertex is 4, meaning k = 4
The vertex overall is (h,k) = (-1, 4)
This shows choice D is true, meaning choice B has to be false.
Choice C is true because the axis of symmetry is the x coordinate of the vertex. This is the vertical line that cuts the parabola into two mirrored halves. This vertical line always goes through the vertex.
Answer:
216 outcomes.
Just as one die has six outcomes and two dice have 62 = 36 outcomes, the probability experiment of rolling three dice has 63 = 216 outcomes
