aj graphs the function f(x)=-(x+2)² -1 as shown below.

part 1: what mistake did aj make in the graph?

part 2: evaluate any two x-values (between -5 and 5) into aj's function. show your work. how does your work prove that aj made a mistake in the graph?

Part 1) AJ drawn the parabola opening upwards, instead of drawing it opening downwards

Part 2) see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) What mistake did AJ make in the graph?

we have

This is the equation of a vertical parabola written in vertex form

The parabola open downward (because the leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex represent a maximum

The vertex is the point (-2,-1)

therefore

AJ drawn the parabola opening upwards, instead of drawing it opening downwards

Part 2) Evaluate any two x-values (between -5 and 5) into AJ's function. Show your work. How does your work prove that AJ made a mistake in the graph?

take the values x=-4 and x=4

For x=-4

substitute the value of x in the quadratic equation

For x=4

substitute the value of x in the quadratic equation

According to AJ's graph for the value of x=-4 the function should be positive, however it is negative and for the value of x=4 the function should be positive and the function is negative

therefore

AJ made a mistake in the graph

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
