Solve the problem or provide an explanation.Graph y = -x2 + 4x - 12 on your graphing calculator and then graph f(x) =
. Explain what occurs and why.
What will be an ideal response?
There is no graph for f(x). For all values of x, -x2 + 4x - 12 < 0; that is, the graph of y = -x2 + 4x - 12 is below the x-axis. Square root functions are not defined for negative values of the radicand.
