2. A quadratic function and a blank grid are given below. f (x)= x2 – 5x – 24
X

- 12
-16
-20
-24
-28
-32
-36)
Using a graph of the function, determine which statement is NOT a true description
of this quadratic function.

First step is to get rid of the square root. remember that a square root is the same as raising to the (1/2) power. see below: multiply exponents per exponent rules to get: remember you subtract exponents from the denominator and add exponents in the numerator so: simplify further: so a is the correct choice. if you don't understand this google exponent rules and it will you understand. look at the image results.
