which of the following is a point on the graph as described by the function y = 2x + 1^2 - 4
Since the given function is y = 2x + 1^2 - 4, we need to choose a point that satisfies this equation.
Let's choose x = 2.
Plugging x = 2 into the equation:
y = 2(2) + 1^2 - 4
y = 4 + 1 - 4
y = 1
Therefore, the point (2, 1) is on the graph described by the function y = 2x + 1^2 - 4.
