Respuesta :

Answer:

Option 1. Lynn, only

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Listen Lynn, Jude, and Anne were given the function f(x)=-2x^2+32, and they were asked to find f(3). Lynn's answer was 14, Jude's answer was 4, and Anne's answer was (+/-)4. Who is correct?

1. Lynn, only

2. Jude, only

3. Anne, only

4. Both Lynn and Jude

we have

[tex]f(x)=-2x^{2} +32[/tex]

This is a vertical parabola open downward (leading coefficient is negative)

The vertex is a maximum

we know that

f(3) means, the value of f(x) when the value of x is equal to 3

so

For x=3

substitute in the quadratic equation and solve for f(x)

[tex]f(3)=-2(3^{2}) +32[/tex]

[tex]f(3)=-18 +32[/tex]

[tex]f(3)=14[/tex]

therefore

Lynn's answer is correct
