D. Y = 1/2 ( x + 2)^2 - 3

Which Equation Best Represents The Graph Shown Below Explain In Detail How You Arrived At Your Answer By Stating Each Of The Mathematical Transformations Necess class=

Answer :

The equation that best represents the parabola given in this problem is:

A. y = (x - 2)² - 3.

What is the equation of a parabola given it’s vertex?

The equation of a quadratic function, of vertex (h,k), is given by:

y = a(x - h)² + k

In which a is the leading coefficient.

For this problem, the vertex is at (2, -3), hence:

h = 2, k = -3.

And:

y = a(x - 2)² - 3.

When x = 0, y = 1, hence:

1 = 4a - 3

4a = 4

a = 1.

Hence the equation is given by:

A. y = (x - 2)² - 3.
