Question

Sketch the graph of y = negative 2 x squared + x + 1 using your graphing calculator. What are the x-intercepts of this graph? a. (1, 0) and (-0.5, 0) c. There are no x-intercepts b. (-2.5, 0) and (-2, 0) d. (-1.5, 0) and (-0.5, 0)

Answer 1

The x-intercept is (1, 0) and (-0.5, 0).

The correct option is (a)

What is intercept?

The x-intercept is the point where a line crosses the x-axis, and the y-intercept is the point where a line crosses the y-axis.

Given function is:

f(x)= $-2x^{2}+x+1$

So, The graph of this equation is attaches below.

The x- intercepts of this graph

$\mathrm{X\:Intercepts}:\:\left(-\frac{1}{2},\:0\right),\:\left(1,\:0\right)$

or

X intercepts: (1, 0) and (-0.5, 0)

Hence, the x-intercept is (1, 0) and (-0.5, 0).
