Question

Function f is represented by the equation given below.

Function g has a vertex at (2,4) and the parabola opens downwards.

Which of the following statements is true? f(x)=x^2-5x+6

A.
The minimum of function f is at (-5,6).
B.
The minimum of function g is at (2,4).
C.
The y-intercept of function f is less than the y-intercept of function g.
D.
The y-intercept of function f is greater than the y-intercept of function g.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Unfortunately, you have not shared function g(x).  But I can focus on questions involving function f(x) alone:

A:  We can find the x-coordinate of the minimum of f by calculating x = -b/(2a).  Here that comes out to x = 5/2*1) = 5/2.  This does not agree with A.  A is FALSE.

B:  Function g(x) unknown; cannot answer this.

C:  The y-intercept of function f(x) is 6.  That of g(x) is unknown.

D:  The y-intercept of function f(x) is 6.  That of g(x) is unknown
