Revision Exercise

1. Sketch the curve of the quadratic function f(x) = x2 x -12

2. Express y = 5 + 4x x2 in the form y = a (x + b)2, where a, b, and c are constants. Hence


state the maximum value of y and the value of x at which it occurs. Sketch the curve
y = 5 + 4x x2

makes f (x) a minimum value.
