Part a· 4 steps
Identify key features from the graph.
The graph shows a parabola opening downwards. The axis of symmetry is indicated by the dotted line . One x-intercept is clearly marked at .
Since the axis of symmetry is and one x-intercept is , the other x-intercept must be symmetric with respect to . The distance from 2 to 3 is 1, so the other x-intercept is .
(Note: The label on the x-axis is inconsistent with the axis of symmetry and x-intercept . We will proceed with and as the x-intercepts.)
The general form of a quadratic equation with x-intercepts and is .Substitute the x-intercepts into the general form.
Using and :
Find the value of .
The graph shows the parabola passing through the y-axis at a negative value. Assuming the y-intercept is (which is visually plausible and a common value for to be an integer), substitute this point into the equation:
Write the final equation by substituting and expanding.
The equation for graph a) is .
Part b
Identify key features from the graph.
The graph shows a parabola opening upwards. The vertex is clearly marked at . One x-intercept is marked at .
The general form of a quadratic equation with vertex is .Substitute the vertex coordinates into the general form.
Using and :
Find the value of .
The graph shows an x-intercept at , so the point is on the parabola. Substitute this point into the equation:
Write the final equation by substituting and expanding.
The equation for graph b) is .
