End of Chapter Test PAGE 4Read the scenario below. Use the scenario to answer Questions 11 through 15.Tanya’s jump rope forms the shape of a parabola as she jumps. The shape can be modeled bythe equation y 2 (x 3)(x 3) , where x is the number of feet to the right of Tanya’s waist,3and y is the height of the jump rope above Tanya’s waist as she swings the rope over her head.11. Create a graph of the quadratic function on the grid below. First, choose your bounds andintervals. Be sure to label your graph clearly.Answers may vary.
