The graph of which function has an axis of symmetry at x =-1/4 ?f(x) = 2x2 + x – 1

f(x) = 2x2 – x + 1

f(x) = x2 + 2x – 1

f(x) = x2 – 2x + 1

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The graph of which function has an axis of symmetry at x = -1/4 is :

f(x) = 2x² + x – 1

Further explanation

Discriminant of quadratic equation ( ax² + bx + c = 0 ) could be calculated by using :

D = b² - 4 a c

From the value of Discriminant , we know how many solutions the equation has by condition :

D < 0 → No Real Roots

D = 0 → One Real Root

D > 0 → Two Real Roots

Let us now tackle the problem!

An axis of symmetry of quadratic equation y = ax² + bx + c is :

\large {\boxed {x = (-b)/(2a) } }

Option 1 :

f(x) = 2x² + x – 1 → a = 2 , b = 1 , c = -1

Axis of symmetry → x = (-b)/(2a) = (-1)/(2(2)) = -(1)/(4)

Option 2 :

f(x) = 2x² – x + 1 → a = 2 , b = -1 , c = 1

Axis of symmetry → x = (-b)/(2a) = (-(-1))/(2(2)) = (1)/(4)

Option 3 :

f(x) = x² + 2x – 1 → a = 1 , b = 2 , c = -1

Axis of symmetry → x = (-b)/(2a) = (-2)/(2(1)) = -1

Option 4 :

f(x) = x² – 2x + 1 → a = 1 , b = -2 , c = 1

Axis of symmetry → x = (-b)/(2a) = (-(-2))/(2(1)) = 1

Answer 2
Answer:

The graph of function \boxed{f(x)=2x^(2)+x-1} has an axis of symmetry as \boxed{x=-(1)/(4)}.

Further explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic equation is as follows:

\boxed{f(x)=ax^(2)+bx+c}

The vertex form of a quadratic equation is as follows:

\boxed{g(x)=a(x-h)^(2)+k}

Axis of symmetry is the line which divides the graph of the parabola in two perfect halves.

The formula for axis of symmetry of a quadratic function is given as follows:

\boxed{x=-(b)/(2a)}

The first function is given as follows:

f(x)=2x^(2)+x-1

The above function is in standard form with a=2, b=1 and c=-1.

Then its axis of symmetry is calculated as,

\begin{aligned}x&=-(b)/(2a)\n&=-(1)/(2*2)\n&=-(1)/(4)\end{aligned}  

The axis of symmetry of first function is x=-(1)/(4).

Express the function f(x)=2x^(2)+x-1 in its vertex form,

\begin{aligned}f(x)&=2x^(2)+x-1\n&=(√(2)x)^(2)+\left(2* √(2)x* (1)/(2√(2))\right)-1+\left((1)/(2√(2))\right)^(2)-\left((1)/(√(2))\right)^(2)\n&=\left(√(2)x+(1)/(2√(2))\right)^(2)-1-(1)/(8)\n&=\left[√(2)\left(x+(1)/(4)\right)\right]^(2)-(9)/(8)\n&=2\left(x-\left(-(1)/(4)\right)\right)^(2)-(9)/(8)\end{aligned}

The above equation is in the vertex form with a=2, h=-(1)/(4) and k=-(9)/(8).

Therefore, its axis of symmetry is given as,

\begin{aligned}x&=h\nx&=-(1)/(4)\end{aligned}  

The graph of function f(x)=2x^(2)+x-1 is shown in Figure 1.

The second function is given as follows:

f(x)=2x^(2)-x+1

The above function is in standard form with a=2, b=-1 and c=1.

Then its axis of symmetry is calculated as,

\begin{aligned}x&=-(b)/(2a)\n&=-((-1))/(2*2)\n&=(1)/(4)\end{aligned}  

The axis of symmetry of second function is x=(1)/(4).

The third function is given as follows:

f(x)=x^(2)+2x-1

The above function is in standard form with a=1, b=2 and c=-1.

Then its axis of symmetry is calculated as,

\begin{aligned}x&=-(b)/(2a)\n&=-(2)/(2*1)\n&=-1\end{aligned}  

The axis of symmetry of third function is x=-1.

The fourth function is given as follows:

f(x)=x^(2)-2x+1  

The above function is in standard form with a=1, b=-2 and c=1.

Then its axis of symmetry is calculated as,

\begin{aligned}x&=-(b)/(2a)\n&=-(-2)/(2*1)\n&=1\end{aligned}  

The axis of symmetry of fourth function is x=1.

Therefore, the function \boxed{f(x)=2x^(2)+x-1} has an axis of symmetry as \boxed{x=-(1)/(4)}.

What is the verbal expression for 15+r

Answers

Answer:

15 is added to r is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can see that one is a number and another is a variable which is named as 'r' here.

When we add a number ( which is called constant ) to a variable

then we write same as we speak

like 15 +r is verbally written as 15 is added to r .

your answer is going to be fifteen plus r
