Question

PLEASE HELP!! Identify the vertex and the y-intercept of the graph of the function.


`y = - 0.25(x - 4) ^(2) - 2`
A. vertex, (-2,4); y-intercept,-6

B. vertex, (-4,0); y-intercept,-6

C. vertex, (2,-4); y-intercept,-6

D. vertex, (4,-2); y-intercept,-6

Answer 1

From the graph, we can see that the parabola open downward and has a vertex of (4,-2). It has a y-intercept of -6.
