Graph the function.
g(x) = -5x^2
Choose the correct answer below.

Answer

The function g(x) = -5x^2 is a downward-opening parabola with its vertex at the origin (0,0). The graph should show a parabola that opens downwards, getting narrower compared to the standard parabola y = x^2 due to the coefficient -5.

  1. A. Incorrect, this graph does not represent a downward-opening parabola.
  2. B. Incorrect, this graph does not represent a downward-opening parabola.
  3. C. Correct, this graph shows a downward-opening parabola with the vertex at the origin.
  4. D. Incorrect, this graph does not represent a downward-opening parabola.
