Problem

Decide whether the following statement is frue or false. The graph of $f(x)=4 x^{2}+5 x-7$ opens up Choose the correct answer below. False True

Solution

Step 1 :Decide whether the following statement is true or false. The graph of \(f(x)=4 x^{2}+5 x-7\) opens up.

Step 2 :The graph of a quadratic function \(f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c\) opens up if the coefficient of \(x^2\) (which is \(a\)) is positive.

Step 3 :In this case, the coefficient of \(x^2\) is 4, which is positive.

Step 4 :Therefore, the graph of the function opens up.

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{\text{True}}\)
