Question 1 • FL-1200700-Mathematics for College Algebra MIS

Which quadratic function in standard form has the values a = –3.5, b = 2.7, and c = –8.2?

Answer
A
f(x) = 2.7x2 – 8.2x – 3.5
B
f(x) = 2.7x2 – 3.5x – 8.2
C
f(x) = –3.5x2 – 8.2x + 2.7
D
f(x ) = –3.5x2 + 2.7x – 8.2

Explanation

A quadratic in standard form is f(x) = ax² + bx + c. Substituting a = –3.5, b = 2.7, and c = –8.2 gives f(x) = –3.5x² + 2.7x – 8.2, which is choice D.
