Question

Functions 1 and 2 are shown:

Function 1: f(x) = −3x2 + 2

A graph of a parabola that opens down that goes through points negative one half comma 0, one half comma 4, and 2 comma 0 is shown.

Which function has a larger maximum?

Function 1 has a larger maximum.
Function 2 has a larger maximum.
Function 1 and Function 2 have the same maximum.
Function 1 does not have a maximum value.

Answer 1

Answer: Function 2 has a larger maximum.

Explanation:

The maximum is basically the peek of the line on the graph. think of it like the peek of a mountain. We already know the maximum of function two which is 4. but now we need to graph function 1 so we can compare. After you graph function one you will see that the peek or the maximum on that line is at 2, which is less than 4. So that means Function 2 had a larger maximum.

Answer 2

B

Explanation:

Function 2 has a larger maximum.
