For x-intercepts "b" and "c", a quadratic can be written as
y = a(x -b)(x -c)
You know the x-intercepts, so you can write the equation as
y = a(x +2)(x -3) . . . . . . eliminates the first two answer choices
Substituting (x, y) = (-1, 2), you have
2 = a(-1+2)(-1-3) = -4a
Then dividing by -4 gives
-2/4 = a = -1/2 . . . . . corresponds to the third answer choice
The appropriate selection is
y = -1/2 (x + 2)(x - 3)
Answer:
72% i think but I may be wrong
1) Identify the statement you want to prove is true
2) Assume temporarily that the statement is false; assume the opposite is true
3) Obtain statements that logically follow from your assumption.
4) Reason logically until you reach a contradiction of a known fact.
5) Point out that your assumption must be false, and the statement must then be true.
