Question

The parabola opens upward. The vertex is at point (4 comma 0). The parabola passes through the following points: (3 comma 5) (4 comma 0) (5 comma 5) What is the x -intercept of the graph shown?

Accepted Answer

Choice D is correct. The x -intercept of the graph shown is the point x , y on the graph where y = 0 . At y = 0 , the corresponding value of x is 4 . Therefore, the x -intercept of the graph shown is 4 , 0 . Choice A is incorrect. This is the x -intercept of a graph in the xy -plane that intersects the x -axis at x = - 5 , not x = 4 . Choice B is incorrect. This is the x -intercept of a graph in the xy -plane that intersects the x -axis at x = 5 , not x = 4 . Choice C is incorrect. This is the x -intercept of a graph in the xy -plane that intersects the x -axis at x = - 4 , not x = 4 .
