Answer:
f(x)= -1(x-3)(x+4)
First blank: -1
2nd blank: 3
3rd blank: 4
Explanation:
When the parabola is flipped upside down (opened downward) there should be a negative in front. So the first blank is -1. Also, this parabola has not been stretched or smashed, that's why the value is a 1. Again, negative, because its reflected (flipped).
The other two blanks will come from the x-intercepts. The curve crosses the x-axis at 3 and -4.
If x = 3, then
subtracting 3 from both sides
x - 3 = 0
That x-3 is the
x - blank in the problem. Fill in a 3.
If x = -4, then adding 4 to both sides,
x + 4 = 0
Likewise, this x+4 is the
x + blank
in the question. Fill in a 4.
