Hi! The question I have is pretty simple but I'm not sure exactly what it should look like because I was absent for the lesson :( But the question is: a. Write your own quadratic function in the standard form y=ax^2+bx+c such that a, b, and c do not equal zero.

I tried to come up one and did y=4x^2+5x+8
Would this work for the question :)
Thank you to whoever responds to this, it's a take home test and I really need to bring up my grade so I just want to double check everything

Yes, that is indeed a quadratic equation. 
The one you wrote however doesn't intersect the x axis (has no solutions for x).
