Question

Which of the following functions represents the following graph?

My answer: f(x) = (x + 2)2 - 1

Answer 1

you have a zero at -3 and -1

Answer 2

is that vertex form? did you mean (x+2)^2?

Answer 3

but yeah. f(x)=(x+2)^2-1

Answer 4

yes, that's what I mean

Answer 5

Sorry, I forgot the "^" sign

Answer 6

is that the only option though? because you don't want to forget about solving for the a value, remember y=a(x-h)^2+k . the only time you wouldn't solve for a, is when they tell you that it is a graph of y=x^2 that has been shifted h units left/right and/or k units up/down

Answer 7

No, there are more options

Answer 8

alright, so all you need to do now is find a point on the graph and plug its (x,y) into the equation and see what you get for a. :)

Answer 9

f(x) =
