Which equation has this graph?

Answer 1

Here are the options.

y = x2 - 6x + 5
y = -x2 - 6x + 5
y = -x2 - 6x - 5
y = x2 + 6x - 5

@satellite73 Please help?

Answer 3

plz?

Answer 4

@galacticwavesXX ?

Answer 5

put that equation into your calculator if you have a graphing calculator and see where it intersects on the y and x axis. for y its when x is 0 and for x its when y is 0

Answer 6

or we can do it this way

\[y=x^2-6x+5\] set y=0 and you get \[0=x^2-6x+5\]

factor out and you get \[(x-5)(x-1)=0\]

solve for x and you get x=5 and x=1 so the 1st option is your answer

Answer 7

this is the process you would take to see which one of the equations matches the graph

Answer 8

ok
