Answer:
The true statements about the graph of the function are:
The range of the function is {y : y ≤ 6} ⇒ 2nd
The function is increasing over the interval (–∞ , –2) ⇒ 3rd
The function has a positive y-intercept ⇒ 5th
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to solve the problem
- The function f(x) = -x² - 4x + 2 is a quadratic function represented
graphically by a downward parabola with maximum vertex
∵ The form of the quadratic function is f(x) = ax² + bx + c
∵ The coordinates of the vertex of the parabola are (h , k) where
h = -b/2a and k = f(h)
∵ a = -1 , b = -4
∴ h = -(-4)/2(-1) = 4/-2 = -2
∵ k = f(h)
∴ k = -(-2)² - 4(-2) + 2 = -(4) - (-8) + 2
∴ k = -4 + 8 + 2 = 6
∴ The vertex of the parabola is (-2 , 6)
* Look to the attached figure to find the true statements
∵ The greatest value of the function is 6 ⇒ y-coordinate of the vertex
∵ The range of the function is the values y-coordinates of the points
on the parabola
∴ The range of the function is {y : y ≤ 6}
- The domain of the function is {x : x ∈ R} or (-∞ , ∞)
∵ The value of y increasing after -∞ to the x-coordinate of the vertex
∵ x-coordinate of the vertex is -2
∴ The function is increasing over the interval (–∞ , –2)
- The parabola intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 2)
∵ The y-intercept is the intersection between the parabola and the
y-axis
∵ The parabola intersect the y-axis at point (0 , 2)
∴ The y-intercept is 2
∴ The function has a positive y-intercept
so we have three points, A, B and C, if indeed AC is the diameter of the circle, then half the distance of AC is its radius, and the midpoint of AC is the center of the circle, morever, since B is also on the circle, the distance from B to the center must be the same radius distance.
in short, half the distance of AC must be equals to the distance of B to the midpoint of AC, if indeed AC is the diameter.
now, let's check the distance from say A to the center, and check the distance of B to the center, if it's indeed the center, they'll be the same and thus AC its diameter.
