Classify the function as linear or quadratic and identify the quadratic, linear, and constant terms. f(x) = 6x2 + x − 12

A. quadratic function; quadratic term: −12x2; linear term: −6x; constant term: −12

B. linear function; linear term: x; constant term: −12

C. linear function; linear term: 6x2; constant term: −12

D. quadratic function; quadratic term: 6x2; linear term: x; constant term: −12

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) = 6x2 +x -12 is a quadratic since the highest degree polynomial term is 2. So that eliminates B and C. Option A is incorrect because the quadratic term is 6 not double the constant. There for the correct choice is D because the function is a quadratic and the quadratic term is 6x2, the linear term is x and the constant term is -12.
