draw the graph of the polynomial f(x) = -x^2-2x+3
Answers
Answer:
Your Graph is in the image shared below
Step-by-step explanation:
For making the graph,
we need to the following things
Graph will be a parabola as degree of polynomial is 2
Coefficient of x = -1 which is negative
so parabola will be opening downward
Now, to find the point on which parabola will cut x axis would be
zeroes or roots of
therefore, its zeroes or roots are -3 and 1
So parabola will cut x axis at (-3,0) and (1,0)
Now, to find the point where parabola will cut y axis would be
value of f(x) for x=0
therefore
So, parabola will cut y axis at (0,3)
Now, we need to find the coordinates of vertex of parabola,
so, x coordinate = -b/2a= -(-2)/2(-1) = -1
now, for y coordinate, put x=-1 in
=
Therefore, vertex of parabola = (-1,4)
Now, You can use these information to make parabola.
If you need more precision, then
start putting different value of x in f(x). Like -
You can now also plot point (2,-5) and (3,-12)
Like this, you can plot as much points as you wish and plot the graph more precisely.
Hope You got the solution :-))
