Math Problem Statement
Solution
The image you uploaded contains a function and a partially filled-in chart with graphing details, such as domain, range, intercepts, and increasing/decreasing intervals. Below, I'll walk through the problem step-by-step, providing explanations for each component of the function and the requested details.
1. Parent Function:
The given function is a quadratic function , so its parent function is: This is a standard parabola that opens upward, with the vertex at .
2. Transformations:
There are two transformations applied to the parent function:
- Vertical Compression: The coefficient compresses the graph vertically by a factor of 0.5 and reflects it over the x-axis.
- Vertical Shift: The constant term shifts the graph upward by 1 unit.
3. Graphing:
The graph is a downward-facing parabola due to the negative coefficient. The vertex of the parabola is at , which comes from the transformation of the parent function.
4. Domain:
The domain of a quadratic function is all real numbers: [ \text
