How do you graph #f(x)= x^2 - 10x + 5#?
1 Answer
Calculating the vertex and axis' cut points of your parabola.
Explanation:
Since our function is a parabola, to graph it, we will need to know where its vertex is, thus, we apply the vertex calculating formula, which follows:
a, b and c are defined as the coefficients of the variable in the function;
Let's calculate where does the function cut the OX axis by equaling the image to 0;
Knowing now the OX cut points, let's find out the OY axis ones:
With this information and the fact that
graph{x^2-10x+5 [-52, 52, -26, 26.03]}
