Question

Consider the following graphs of quadratic functions.

M17/5/MATSD/SP1/ENG/TZ2/15

The equation of each of the quadratic functions can be written in the form $y = a{x^2} + bx + c$ , where $a \ne 0$ .

Each of the sets of conditions for the constants $a$ , $b$ and $c$ , in the table below, corresponds to one of the graphs above.

Write down the number of the corresponding graph next to each set of conditions.
