1.1.3 Algebra and functions

For f(x)=x2−3x+2f(x)=x^2-3x+2f(x)=x2−3x+2, what is f(4)f(4)f(4)?

A

f(4)=\strong6f(4)=\strong{6}f(4)=\strong6

B
  • Turning point: (0,0)(0,0)(0,0)
  • Axis of symmetry: x=0x=0x=0
C
  • ∣a∣>1|a|>1∣a∣>1: narrower
  • 0<∣a∣<10<|a|<10<∣a∣<1: wider
D

The quadratic formula is x=−b±b2−4ac2ax=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}x=2a−b±b2−4ac​​, and the discriminant is Δ=b2−4ac\boxed{\Delta=b^2-4ac}Δ=b2−4ac​.
