Question

A quadratic function f is given.

f(x) = −4x2 − 12x + 5
(a) Express f in standard form.
f(x) =
−4(x+32​)2+14
 
 
 

(b) Find the vertex and x- and y-intercepts of f. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)
vertex     (xy) =
 
 
−32​,14
 
 
 
 
x-intercepts     (xy) =
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 (smaller x-value)
  (xy) =
 
 
 
 
 
  
 
 (larger x-value)
y-intercept     (xy) =
 
 
0,5
 
 
  
 

(c) Sketch a graph of f.
