What type of quadratic equation is represented in the graph below? http://learn.flvs.net/webdav/assessment_images/educator_algebra1_v10/09_02_08.jpg Not enough information Non-factorable Trinomial Perfect Square Trinomial Difference of Two Squares not enough info, right? @radar

we are unable to look at your link
One second, I'll upload it.
theres plenty of information
I'm not good at this >.< but okay
the roots are x=-2 and x=2 (x-2)(x+2) = x^2 - 2^2
the vertex is (0,-4) which also corresponds to x^2 - 2^2 so there is no scaling factor present
So, the second one? >.<
if a quadratic graph touches the x axis anywhere ... its factorable along the real numbers if it touches at only ONE point, its a perfect square if it touches at TWO points, then it can be determined by a product of its roots
as such, this passes thru 2 points on teh x axis, so there IS enough information to create the quadratic. it IS factorable, and NOT a perfect square
Not enough information - wrong Non-factorable Trinomial - wrong Perfect Square Trinomial - wrong Difference of Two Squares - possibly
Ohh, okay. >_< Thanks!
good luck :)
f(x) = x^2 - 4
Which is one of the possibilities.
