Question 7 • Algebra I

Which function has a vertex at the origin?

Answer
A
f of x is equal to open paren x plus 4 close paren squared
B
f of x is equal to open paren x minus 4 close paren times open paren x plus 4 close paren
C
f of x is equal to negative x squared
D
f of x is equal to x times open paren x minus 4 close paren

Explanation

A quadratic has its vertex at the origin when its vertex is (0, 0). For choice C, f(x) = −x², which is the parabola y = x² reflected across the x-axis; its vertex remains at (0, 0). The other choices have vertices at different points.
