Question

6. Which of the following is the graph of the equation y = −2x2 − 3x + 4?

Answer 1

Answer:

From the looks of the graph, it looks like the answer will be Letter C. (The last graph).

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the parabola using the direction, vertex, focus, and axis of symmetry.

Direction: Opens Down

Vertex:  ( − 3 /4 ,  41 /8 )

Focus:  ( − 3 /4 ,  5 )

Axis of Symmetry:  x = − 3 /4

Directrix:  y = 21 /4
