Solution
from PIL import Image import pytesseract
Load the uploaded image to extract text
image_path = '/mnt/data/17320748331726yxpw60g.jpg' extracted_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open(image_path))
extracted_text'Sketch the graph of each function.\n\n1) y=4x?\n''Sketch the graph of each function.\n\n1) y=4x?\n'successThe problem is to sketch the graph of the function . Let's analyze and describe the function.
Analysis of :
- Type of Function: It is a quadratic function, represented by a parabola.
- Vertex: The vertex is at , since the function is in the form where .
- Direction: The parabola opens upwards because .
- Stretch Factor: The coefficient makes the parabola steeper than the standard .
Key Points for the Graph:
- At , (vertex).
- At , .
- At , .
- At , .
- At , .
Let me plot the graph for you.import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Define the function y = 4x^2
x = np.linspace(-3, 3, 500) # Range of x values y = 4 * x**2 # Corresponding y values
Plot the function
plt.figure(figsize=(8, 6)) plt.plot(x, y, label=r"$y = 4x^2$", linewidth=2) plt.title("Graph of y = 4x²", fontsize=14) plt.xlabel("x", fontsize=12) plt.ylabel("y", fontsize=12) plt.axhline(0, color='black',linewidth=0.8, linestyle='--') plt.axvline(0, color='black',linewidth=0.8, linestyle='--') plt.grid(color='gray', linestyle='--', linewidth=0.5) plt.legend(fontsize=12) plt.show() <<ImageDisplayed>>successHere is the graph of the function . The parabola opens upwards, and it is steep due to the coefficient .
Would you like further details on this function or another topic? Here are some follow-up questions:
- How does the coefficient affect the steepness of the parabola compared to ?
- What is the axis of symmetry for this parabola?
- How would the graph change if the function was ?
- Can you find the derivative of and interpret its meaning?
- How would the vertex shift if the equation were ?
Tip: To sketch a graph by hand, always identify key points (e.g., vertex, axis of symmetry, and a few points on either side of the vertex).
