Question

Which statement describes the function y = ax^n when a = 1 and n is even?

Answer 1

a)The graph opens down.
b)The graph is symmetric about the x axis.
c)The graph passes through (–1, 1), (0, 0), and (1, 1).
d)The graph has more than one x intercept.

Answer 2

hint: think of when n = 2

Answer 3

i dont get it sorry

Answer 4

if a = 1, n = 2, then

y = ax^n

turns into

y = 1x^2

Answer 5

I would also think of the value of a and what happens if a>0 or a<0

Answer 6

so there answer is b?

Answer 7

graph y = x^2 and you'll see a few possible choices eliminated

Answer 8

oh its C
