Question

Can someone please explain how they got this answer because the entire lesson they haven’t shown me how to graph these

Drag each image to the correct location on the graph. Not all images will be used.
Drag the graph part to the coordinate plane to graph this function:
-x² - 8x – 10,
x < -2
f(x) = 3* + 1,
-2 < x < 2
2x - 4,
x > 2
Ignore the open and closed endpoints for this activity.

Answer 1

Please check explanations

Explanation:

Here, we have three types of equations and three plotted graphs

we have a quadratic equation

an exponential equation

and a linear equation

For a quadratic equation, we usually have a parabola

The first equation is quadratic and as such the first graph that is parabolic belongs to it

For an exponential equation, we usually have a graph that rises or falls before becoming flattened

The second equation represents an exponential equation so the second graph is for it

Lastly, we have a linear equation

A linear equation usually has a straight line graph

Thus, as we can see, the third graph represents the linear equation
