Question

Which of the following ordered pairs lies on the graph of h(x) = -2x squared?

(1, 4)
(1, -4)
(1, -2)

Answers

  1. By direct evaluation we conclude that the point (x, y) = (1, – 2) lies on the graph of the quadratic equation h(x) = – 2 · x². (Correct choice: C)

    What ordered pair lies on the curve generated by a given function?

    In this problem we have three ordered pairs to be checked on a given function by direct evaluation, a ordered pair lines on the curve of function if and only if the x-value of the ordered pair leads to the y-value by evaluating in the function. Now we proceed to evaluate each of the three points at the function presented in the statement:
    (x, y) = (1, 4)
    h(1) = – 2 · 1²
    h(1) = – 2
    By direct evaluation we conclude that the point (x, y) = (1, – 2) lies on the graph of the quadratic equation h(x) = – 2 · x². (Correct choice: C)
