Answer:

Correct answer is:

C. [tex]F(x) =-x^{2} -3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function:

[tex]G(x) = x^{2}[/tex]

The graph of [tex]G(x)[/tex] is also shown in the given question figure.

It is a parabola with vertex at (0,0).

Sign of [tex]x^{2}[/tex] is positive, that is why the parabola opens up.

General equation of parabola is given as:

[tex]y = a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

Here, in G(x), a = 1

Vertex (h,k) is (0,0).

As seen from the question figure,

The graph of F(x) opens down that is why it will have:

Sign of [tex]x^{2}[/tex] as negative. i.e. [tex]a = -1[/tex]

And vertex is at (0,-3)

Putting the values of a and vertex coordinates,

Hence, the equation of parabola will become:

[tex]y = -1(x-0)^2+(-3)\\y = -x^2-3[/tex]

The correct answer is:

C. [tex]F(x) =-x^{2} -3[/tex]

The required equation of graph f(x) is [tex]y = -x^{2} -3[/tex]

Given that,

The graph of f(x), resembles the graph of G(x) = [tex]x^{2}[/tex].

We have to find,

Which of the following could be the equation of  f(x).

According to the question,

Function, [tex]G(x) = x^{2}[/tex],

The graph in the given question figure. It is a parabola with vertex at (0,0).

By the graph predict that Sign of [tex]x^{2}[/tex]  is positive, that is why the parabola opens up.

General equation of parabola is given by,

[tex]y = a(x-h)^{2} +k[/tex]

Where, a = 1, and vertex (h, k) is (0,0).

The graph of F(x) unknown function opens down ,

Sign of [tex]x^{2}[/tex] as negative. and the vertex is at (0,-3)

To find the equation of function f(x),

Putting the values of a and vertex coordinates,

[tex]y = a(x-h)^{2} +k[/tex]

The equation of parabola become:

[tex]y = -1(x-0)^{2} +(-3)\\\\y = -x^{2} -3[/tex]

Hence, The required equation of f(x) is [tex]y = -x^{2} -3[/tex].
