Which function is a quadratic function? a(x) = –2x^3 + 2x – 6 b(x) = 5x^3 + 8x^2 + 3 c(x) = –8x^2 + 3x – 5 d(x) = 6x^4 + 2x – 3

c(x) = –8x^2 + 3x – 5 is a quadratic

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic function involves the 2nd power of x:  x^2, and may (or may not) involve the 1st and zeroth power of x.

a(x) = -2x^3 is not a quadratic because of that exponent 3; in a quadratic, the highest power is always 2.

b(x) = 5x^3 + 8x^2 + 3 is not a quadratic for the same reason that a(x) is not a quadratic.

c(x) = –8x^2 + 3x – 5 is a quadratic:  the highest power of x is x^2, the other powers are x^1 and x^0.

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct.   we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306.   this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395.   answer c is correct.
