Math Problem Statement
table and graph of the rule y=10-x^2-3x
Solution
Let's create the table of values and a graph for the given equation .
1. Table of Values
We will calculate for a range of -values. Here's the table for from to .
2. Graph
The graph of the equation is a downward-facing parabola because the coefficient of is negative. I’ll plot the graph based on the table. Let me generate this now. numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Define the function
def f(x): return 10 - x**2 - 3*x
Generate x values and calculate y values
x_values = np.linspace(-5, 5, 100) y_values = f(x_values)
Create the table data for specific points
x_table = np.array([-5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4]) y_table = f(x_table)
Plot the graph
plt.figure(figsize=(8, 6)) plt.plot(x_values, y_values, label='y = 10 - x^2 - 3x', color='blue') plt.scatter(x_table, y_table, color='red', label='Table points') plt.axhline(0, color='black', linewidth=0.8, linestyle='--') plt.axvline(0, color='black', linewidth=0.8, linestyle='--') plt.title('Graph of y = 10 - x^2 - 3x') plt.xlabel('x') plt.ylabel('y') plt.legend() plt.grid(True) plt.show()Here is the graph of . The plotted red points correspond to the table values.
Would you like more details on how the table was computed or about properties like the vertex and axis of symmetry?
Relative Questions:
- How is the vertex of a parabola calculated, and what is the vertex here?
- What role does the coefficient of play in the shape of the graph?
- How can we find the roots of ?
- What are the applications of quadratic functions like this one?
- How can we rewrite in vertex form?
Tip:
To quickly identify key points of a parabola, focus on the vertex, the axis of symmetry, and intercepts (both x and y).
