Which graph shows the quadratic function y = 3x2 − 12x + 10? link to graphs: http://broward.flvs.net/webdav/assessment_images/educator_algebraI_v20/10_20_q36.jpg

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well the choices can't been viewed... so an easy solution might be to find the line of symmetry and then vertex of the parabola the line of symmetry is

OpenStudy (daddy_longlegs):

The following graph is labeled A: A four quadrant graph with a parabola opening up, passing through the points negative 3, 1, negative 2, negative 2, and negative 1, 1 with the vertex at 2, negative 2. The following graph is labeled B: A four quadrant graph with a parabola opening up, passing through the points 1, 4, 2, 1, and 3, 4 with the vertex at 2, 1. The following graph is labeled C: A four quadrant graph with a parabola opening up, passing through the points negative 3, 5, negative 2, 2, and negative 1, 5 with the vertex at negative 2, 2. The following graph is labeled D: A four quadrant graph with a parabola opening up, passing through the points 1, 1, 2, negative 2, and 3, 1 with the vertex at 2, negative 2.

There are four graphs

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

the symmetry axis of the parabola, has the subsequent equation: \[\begin{gathered} x = \frac{{ - b}}{{2a}} = \frac{{ - \left( { - 12} \right)}}{{2 \cdot 3}} \hfill \\ \hfill \\ x = 2 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

the y-coordinate of the vertex, is: \[y = 3 \cdot {2^2} - 12 \cdot 2 + 10 = ...?\]

OpenStudy (sshayer):

\[y=3(x^2+4x+4-4)+10=3(x^2+4x+4)-12+10\] \[y=3\left( x-2 \right)^2-2\] \[\left( x-2 \right)^2=\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\left( y+2 \right)\] it is an upward parabola with vertex at (2,-2)

OpenStudy (daddy_longlegs):

So which would be the correct graph of the equation?

OpenStudy (will.h):

i can help but i can't look at the link you attached

OpenStudy (daddy_longlegs):

how exactly can i attach a file to this?

OpenStudy (will.h):

heres the graph of the quadrilateral listed y= 3x^2 -12x + 10

OpenStudy (sshayer):

you can see your options for vertex.

OpenStudy (will.h):

hope that helps:)
