Given the graph of a quadratic function with the vertex and they-intercept clearly
identified, which of the following statements is not true?
, a) The value of c in f(x)=ax^2+bx+c an easily be determined because it represents
they-intercept of the graph.

c)The value of b in f(x)=ax^2+bx+can easily be determined from the shape of the
graph.
✅✅
d) The values of h and k in f(x)=a(x-h)^2 +k can easily be determined because these
values represent the x and y coordinates of the vertex respectively. - -c)The
value of b in f(x)=ax^2+bx+can easily be determined from the shape of the graph.
