Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic function is expressed as

f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

where

a is the leading coefficient. If a is negative, the parabola opens downwards.

To find the y intercept, we would substitute x = 0 into the function and solve for y or f(x). We have

f(0) = y = - (0)^2 - 10(0) + 1 = 1

y intercept = 1

The graph is a quadratic function, f(x) = - x^2 - 10x + 1 will result in a Parabola that

opens downwards because the leading coefficient is negative(- 1). The graph of this function will have a y intercept of 1
