Which function has a vertex on the y-axis? f(x) = (x – 2)2 f(x) = x(x + 2) f(x) = (x – 2)(x + 2) f(x) = (x + 1)(x – 2)

OpenStudy (3mar):

May I help?

OpenStudy (mathhelp):

Foil your binomials and graph them from standard quadratic form!

OpenStudy (3mar):

Are you familiar with graphing the quadratic equation?

OpenStudy (mathhelp):

kind of but not rly

OpenStudy (3mar):

Ok I think you know that the general form of a quadratic equation look s like \[f(x)=ax^2+bx+c\]

OpenStudy (josh.darnit10):

Do you know how to FOIL the binomials showed?

OpenStudy (mathhelp):

first outer inner last?

OpenStudy (3mar):

??

OpenStudy (mathhelp):

im pretty sure its f(x) = (x – 2)(x + 2)

OpenStudy (mathhelp):

foil

OpenStudy (3mar):

for f(x) = (x – 2)(x + 2) how many roots do you have?

OpenStudy (mathhelp):

wdym roots?

OpenStudy (3mar):
