The standard form of a quadratic function is given by:
\[
f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c
\]
Given the values \( a = -3.5 \), \( b = 2.7 \), and \( c = -8.2 \), we can substitute these values into the standard form:
\[
f(x) = -3.5x^2 + 2.7x - 8.2
\]
Thus, the quadratic function in standard form is:
\[
f(x) = -3.5x^2 + 2.7x - 8.2
\]
\[
f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c
\]
Given the values \( a = -3.5 \), \( b = 2.7 \), and \( c = -8.2 \), we can substitute these values into the standard form:
\[
f(x) = -3.5x^2 + 2.7x - 8.2
\]
Thus, the quadratic function in standard form is:
\[
f(x) = -3.5x^2 + 2.7x - 8.2
