THE PLATFORM YOU ARE GOING TO SUBMIT YOUR ASSIGNMENT ON.
QUESTION 1
The equation of quadratic function is given below: y = f (x) = 4x2 - 8x + 3 Determine the
vertex coordinates, the discriminant of the function, the x-intercept(s) and y-intercept(s)
that the parabola has. Choose the correct answer.
a. Vertex = (1, -1), discriminant = 4, the x-intercepts = (4, 0) and (8, 0), and y-
intercepts = (0, 8).
b. Vertex = (1, -1), discriminant = 16, the x-intercepts = (0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0), and
y-intercepts = (0; 3).
c. Vertex = (0.5, 1.5), discriminant = 137, the x-intercepts = (1, -1) and (0, 0), and y-
intercepts = (0, 4).
d. Vertex = (8, 4), discriminant = 112, the x-intercepts = (0, 1.5) and (0, 0.5), and y-
intercepts = (3, 0).
