Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let’s analyze the given problem, where you are asked to sketch the graphs of parabolas based on the provided characteristics for each part.
Part (a):
-
Range: , .
This tells us the maximum -value of the parabola is 5, and the parabola opens downward. -
Axis of symmetry: .
The parabola is symmetric about the line . -
y-intercept: .
The parabola crosses the y-axis at the point .To sketch this:
- Since the axis of symmetry is at , the vertex will be along this line.
- The maximum point (vertex) should be at , on the line .
- The parabola will pass through , which lies 2 units to the right of the axis of symmetry.
- Reflect this across the axis of symmetry to get another point at .
Part (b):
- **Range
