For the following exercises, write the equation of the quadratic function that contains the given point and has the same shape as the given function.

Contains (1, −6) has the shape of f(x) = 3x2 . Vertex has x-coordinate of −1.

Solutions

Expert Solution

Consider the information provided in the problem.

The x-coordinate of vertex (h, k) is –1,

Therefore, h = -1,

The required graph has same shape as f(x) = 3x2,

Therefore, a = 3,

 

Consider the following,

    x = 1,

f(x) = -6

 

Substitute all these in the standard form of quadratic equation.

f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k

  -6 = 3{1 – (-1)}2 + k

  -6 = 12 + k

  k = -18

 

Now, substitute the values of ah and k in quadratic equation.

f(x) = 3{x – (-1)}2 + (-18)

f(x) = 3x2 + 6x + 3 – 18

      = 3x2 + 6x - 15

 

Hence, the required equation is f(x) = 3x2 + 6x - 15.


Hence, the required equation is f(x) = 3x2 + 6x - 15.
