Question

Can somebody help me?

Answer 1

See explanation

Explanation:

The given function is
`f(x)=-(x+2)^2-1`

You could observe that:
`a=-1` when you compare to
`f(x)=a(x+h)^2+k`.

This should tell you that the graph should open downwards.

Let us substitute
`x=3`, to get:
`f(2)=-(3+2)^2-1=-5^2-1=-26`

Also when x=4,
`f(4)=-(4+2)^2-1=-6^2-1=-36-1=-37`

All the results are negative so the graph should appear below the x-axis

This shows that AJ made a mistake in the graph.
