Question

Which of the following ordered pairs lies on the graph of h(x) = -2x^2?

(1, -4)
(1, -2)
(1, 4)

Answer 1

It is B. That's what it was on my quiz at least 

Answer 2

Answer: The correct option is second,i.e., (1,-2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is,

`h(x)=-2x^2`

We have to find which of the ordered pair lies on the graph of h(x). A

In all ordered pairs the values of x coordinate are same that is 1 and the values of y coordinate are different.

Put x = 1 in the given function.

`h(1)=-2(1)^2`

`h(1)=-2(1)`

`h(1)=-2`

The value of function is -2 at x = 1, so the ordered pair (1,-2) lies on the graph of the function h(x).

Therefore, the second option is correct.
