In the following function defined by an equation in the form y = a x squared + b x + c, identify the values of a, b, and c. y = 5 x squared + 2 x minus 1
a.
a = negative 1, b = 2, c = 5
b.
a = negative 2, b = 5, c = 1
c.
a = 1, b = 5, c = 2
d.
a = 5, b = 2, c = negative 1

a function could be identified in 3 ways either on a chart,graph, or ordered pairs. first a function is that each point has its own. the rule is that there can be many x's to one y but there can not be 2 x's at different y's. so on a graph when you put a straight line through the y's there should be one dot only to be a function.

step-by-step explanation:

no ,sorry if you needed it but you can ask and try to see if any one will anwser ,

step-by-step explanation:

by good luck mark me as brainliest

have a nice day

the function makes a strait line horizontally with no x intercept but a y intercept at 9.
