How can you determine if a function is a quadratic function from its equation?
If the highest exponent of independent variable(say x) is 2 and the highest exponent of dependent variable(say y) is 1 and x and y are not multiplied, then the function is quadratic. For example: 3x-y+x2= 2y-5x+7 represents a quadratic function but y= xy+x2+5 doesn't represent a quadratic function.
What is the highest exponent of the leading variable in a quadratic equation?
the highest exponent of quadratic equation is 2 good luck on NovaNet peoples
What is the degree of term x2 plus 4?
The degree is equal to the highest exponent on a variable, which is 2.
What is a quadratic eqation?
A quadratic equation is an equation where the highest exponent on the variable is 2. For example, the equation, y=2x2+3x-2 is a quadratic equation. The equation y=2x is not quadratic because the highest exponent on x is 1. (If there is no exponent on an x, then the exponent is 1.) The equation, y=x3+3x2-2 is not quadratic because the highest exponent is three. On a graph, a quadratic equation looks like a U or and upside down U. Here are some more example of quadratic equations: y=x2 y=3x2+2x-3 y=x2+5
Why can you not have a variable as an exponent?
you CAN have a variable as an exponent.For example, look at the equation 2x =4. We know x=2
