    The graph of y = f(x) is reflected across the x-axis, then shifted up 4 units. Which equation represents the result?

    1. y = f(x) + 4
    2. y = −f(x) − 4
    3. y = −f(x) + 4
    4. y = f(−x) + 4

    解析

    Reflecting across the x-axis gives y = −f(x). Shifting up 4 adds 4: y = −f(x) + 4.

  64. Hard

    Solve for x: √(2x − 3) = 5.

    1. 11
    2. 14
    3. 16
    4. 28

    解析

    Square both sides: 2x − 3 = 25 → 2x = 28 → x = 14.

  65. Hard

    The parabola y = ax² + bx + c has vertex (1, −4) and passes through (3, 4). What is a?

    1. 1
    2. 2
    3. 3
    4. 4

    解析

    Vertex form: y = a(x − 1)² − 4. At (3, 4): 4 = a(4) − 4 → 4a = 8 → a = 2.
