Can a parabola represent a function?
If a vertical line passes through the supposed function at only one spot then you have a function.
What is the x coordinate of the vertex parabola defined by the following function 3x plus x plus 7x plus 4?
The given equation is not that of a parabola.
How do you tell if a quadratic function is minimum value or a maximum vale?
Standard notation for a quadratic function: y= ax2 + bx + c which forms a parabola, a is positive , minimum value (parabola opens upwards on an x-y graph) a is negative, maximum value (parabola opens downward) See related link.
Does a sideways parabola represent a function?
No, it does not. You can tell if something is a function or not by using the vertical line test. If there is more than one point at any vertical line, it is not a function.
What is y equals x2 plus 2x plus 1 on a graph?
Interpreting that function as y=x2+2x+1, the graph of this function would be a parabola that opens upward. It would be equivalent to y=(x+1)2. Its vertex would be at (-1,0) and this vertex would be the parabola's only zero.
