Question

What is the equation of the graph?

Answer 1

x = –1/2(y – 1)2 + 2

x =1/2 (y – 1)2 + 2

y = –1/2(x – 1)2 + 2

y =1/2 (x – 1)2 + 2

Answer 2

well i know its NOT a .

Answer 3

Well your graph is concave up. Are there any equations you can eliminate based on that?

Answer 4

the negative ones ? a &d ?

Answer 5

or C both face down

Answer 6

^ Right

Answer 7

since it opens up, it has to be \(y=...\)

Answer 8

i meant A& c . sorry.

Answer 9

Then for A and B you should look at what they would be if you solved for y. That should show you that they also cannot be the answers, since then you would get y=sqrt(stuff).

Answer 10

wait did we rule out a and c ? right ?

Answer 11

because their negative.

Answer 12

Yes. You can also rule out B because it would be the wrong type of equation.

Answer 13

thank you for all you help (:
