help please. posting question below. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

where's the question? i saw you typing before

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Graph the funtion and identify the domain and range. y = -3x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since it is a -3 it should start at -3 and go downwards right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure. i honestly don't know how to do this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so judging what i said earlier, lets assume that im correct shall we? :) ok so does the first graph start at -3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nvrmnd just saw the options u were given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so the vertex is supposed to be at 0,0 do u know why?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when u plug in 0,0 for x and y what do u get, that 0=0 so judging from that 0,0 can be plugged in for x and y and can be plotted on the graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm thinking its graph 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why do you think it is graph 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, looking at them now im stuck between b and c. i was going off of what she said and looking at the graphs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you plug in the coordinates?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure how.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have an equation for this particular problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'm not sure. im trying to learn it on my own because my algebra teacher isn't very good. he wouldn't help me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well you would need an equation to be able to plug in the coordinates to get a solution to a particular graph.
