Based on the given points and the shape of the graph being an upward U-shape, we can analyze the information provided.
-
The vertex: Since we have points that appear to be the lowest on the left and then rise on the right, we need to find the minimum point of the U shape. Since the lowest point (vertex) is not explicitly given in the points you've provided, we interpolate based on the provided points. Given the points you provided, a good estimate for the vertex would be between (1,-5) and (3,-9). More specifically, the vertex seems to be at (3, -9).
-
The lesser zero: Zeros occur where the graph intersects the x-axis (f(x) = 0). From the points listed, we can see there are zeros at x = 0 and x = 5. The lesser zero is thus 0.
-
The other zero: As mentioned above, the other zero would be at 5.
-
The line of symmetry: The line of symmetry in a parabolic graph is a vertical line that passes through the vertex. Thus, the line of symmetry is x = 3.
-
The y-intercept: The y-intercept is the value of f(x) when x = 0. From the points provided, we see that f(0) = 0.
Now, we can complete the f(x) table for the specific x values:
| x | f(x) | |----|-------| | -1 | 7 | (Given point (β1, 7)) | | 0 | 0 | (From y-intercept) | | 1 | -5 | (Given point (1, -5)) | | 3 | -9 | (Vertex (3, -9)) | | 5 | 0 | (Given point (5, 0)) |
Summary of Answers:
- The vertex is (3, -9).
- The lesser zero is 0.
- The other zero is 5.
- The line of symmetry is x = 3.
- The y-intercept is 0.
The completed function table is as follows.
| x | f(x) | |----|-------| | -1 | 7 | | 0 | 0 | | 1 | -5 | | 3 | -9 | | 5 | 0 |
