Question

How do I graph f(x) = -3x^2 + 13x + 10

Answer 1

plot the coordinate (0,10) on the y-axis first. Then create a table of x and y values. Plug in your x values into the x values in this equation to find what y=s at each x value. For example: f(3)= -3(3)^2 + 13(3) + 10: So when x=3, y=22. Also, since there is a highest degree of 2 (-3x^2), you know this graph should be in a "U" shape, called a parabola. Good luck!
