Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a function

[tex]f(x) = x^2 − 5x + 4[/tex]

Let us write in vertex form by completion of squares

[tex]f(x) =x^2-5x+6.25-6.25+4\\=(x-2,5)^2-2.25[/tex]

Leading term is positive.  Open upward

Hence minimum at the vertex = (2.5, -2.25)

x intercepts are

[tex]x^2-5x+4\\=(x-4)(x-1)[/tex]

x=4 and 1 are x intercepts

graph of a quadratic function with a minimum at 2.5, negative 2.4 and x-intercepts at 1 and 4

Which is the graph of the quadratic function?

Here we have the quadratic function:

[tex]f(x) = x^2 -5x + 4[/tex]

The vertex of this quadratic equation is at:

x = 5/2 = 2.5

The leading coefficient is positive, so the minimum is at the vertex.

Then we can conclude that the correct option is:

" graph of a quadratic function with a minimum at 2.5, negative 2.4 and x-intercepts at 1 and 4"
