The graph of which quadratic equation is shown below? A. y = x2 + 4x − 3 B. y = x2 − 4x + 3 C. y = −x2 + 4x − 3 D. y = −x2 − 4x + 3 *Graph in comments*

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

the graph passes thru (1,0) an (3,0) y=(x-1)(x-3)

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

and because it opens upward... so x2 is positive

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is one way another way is that you know the vertex therefore you if complete the square and factor you can find the vertex

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

right, the vertex is (2,-1)... so the equation has to be \[\Large y=a(x-2)^2-1\] ...here a=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would be A?

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

no...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohh B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wow (:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

figure it out yet?

OpenStudy (paxpolaris):

yes B.
