Which statements about the graph of the function f(x) = 2x^2– x – 6 are true? Select two options.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please, share the answer options next time.

1)  f(x) = 2x^2– x – 6 is a quadratic function.  

2) The coefficients of this polynomial are a = 2, b = -1 and c = -6

2)  Its graph opens up.

3)  The x-value of the axis of symmetry and the vertex is x = -b / (2a), which here comes out to x = -(-1) / [2(2)], or x = 1/4

4) the y coordinate of the vertex is f(1/4), or -6 1/8

5) The vertex is at (1/4, -6 1/8)

6)  The y-intercept is at f(0):  2(0)^2 - 0 - 6 = -6  =>  (0, -6)

Precision is a measure of how close a value is to the ideal value. In this case, we calculate the difference to know what is the closest to 4 g:

4.05 – 4 = 0.05

3.98 – 4 = -0.02

4.021 – 4 = 0.021

 

We can see that the value of 3.98g has the lowest difference and is therefore the closest to 4g. Hence the most precise is:

<span>3.98 g</span>
