Question

Given f(x) = -x^2 - 2x + 4, find each of the following,

Answer 1

Answer:

Symmetric point: x = -1; (-1, 5)

Minimum of f: None; approaches -∞.

Maximum of f: y = 5.

Is f(x) a one-to-one: No, it fails the horizontal line test and is not injective.

Increasing from: -∞ to -1; (-∞, -1)

Decreasing from: -1 to ∞. (-1, ∞)

Answer 2

Answer:

Given f(x) = -x^2 - 2x + 4, find each of the following,

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -x²-2x+4

f(2) = (-2)²-2×2+4

f(2) = 4-4+4

f(2) = 4
