Question

Which of the following is the graph of the quadratic function? y=x^2+4-12

Answer 1

Graph B

Explanation:

The solutions to a quadratic equation are the points on which we have the graph of the curve touching the x-axis

Now the first thing we will do here is to solve the quadratic equation graph;

x^2 + 4x -12 = 0

x^2 +6x - 2x -12 = 0

x (x + 6) -2(x + 6) = 0

(x-2)(x + 6) = 0

x = 2 or -6

So the graph that touches the x-axis at the points x = 2 and x = -6 is the solution to the quadratic equation

Graph B is the closest to what we have as answer
