The a-value is negative because the x-intercepts are negative.
The a -value is negative because the x -intercepts are negative.

The a-value is positive because the graph is of a parabola that opens up.
The a -value is positive because the graph is of a parabola that opens up.

The a-value is negative because the y-intercept is negative.
The a -value is negative because the y -intercept is negative.

The a-value is negative because the graph is of a parabola that opens down.

Answer 1

Let's go through each question one by one:

1. Quadratic Function f(x) = x² + 2x - 15

   • Domain: The domain of any quadratic function is all real numbers, denoted as \( \mathbb{R} \) or \( -\infty < x < \infty \).
   • Range: To find the range, we can determine the vertex of the parabola. The vertex form can be found using the vertex formula \( x = -\frac{b}{2a} \). Here, \( a = 1 \) and \( b = 2 \): \[ x = -\frac{2}{2(1)} = -1 \] Calculate \( f(-1) \): \[ f(-1) = (-1)^2 + 2(-1) - 15 = 1 - 2 - 15 = -16 \] Therefore, the minimum value is \( -16 \). Since it opens upwards, the range is \( y \geq -16 \).
   • Correct Response: domain \( R \); range \( y \geq -16 \).

2. Quadratic Function f(x) = 2x² + 6x + 4.5

   • The domain of any quadratic function is all real numbers (\( -\infty < x < \infty \)).
   • Correct Response: domain \( -\infty < x < \infty \).

3. Graphing y = 4x² + 3x - 8 and Finding the Vertex

   • The vertex can be found using the vertex formula \( x = -\frac{b}{2a} \): Here, \( a = 4 \) and \( b = 3 \): \[ x = -\frac{3}{2(4)} = -\frac{3}{8} \] Substitute \( x = -\frac{3}{8} \) into the equation to find \( y \): \[ y = 4\left(-\frac{3}{8}\right)^2 + 3\left(-\frac{3}{8}\right) - 8 \] Calculate: \[ y = 4\left(\frac{9}{64}\right) - \frac{9}{8} - 8 \] Simplifying further gives the vertex approximately at \( \left(-0.375, -8.563\right) \).
   • Correct Response: (−0.375,−8.563).

4. Determining the a-value

   • Given that the parabola opens upwards (indicating that the a-value is positive), we conclude:
   • Correct Response: The a-value is positive because the graph is of a parabola that opens up.

5. Convert from Vertex Form to Standard Form y = −4(x + 5)² - 3

   • Start by expanding: \[ y = -4(x^2 + 10x + 25) - 3 \] \[ y = -4x^2 - 40x - 100 - 3 \] \[ y = -4x^2 - 40x - 103 \]
   • Correct Response: y = -4x² - 40x - 103.

In summary, here are the correct responses for each question:

1. Domain \( R \); range \( y \geq -16 \)
2. Domain \( -\infty < x < \infty \)
3. (−0.375,−8.563)
4. The a-value is positive because the graph is of a parabola that opens up.
5. y = -4x² - 40x - 103
