Analyzing Polynomial Functions • Objectives 2i and 2k
OBJECTIVES • 2i Determine the solutions to quadratic equations by using graphing, tables, completing the square, the quadratic formula, and to include real-life applications. (DOK 1) • 2k Graph and analyze quadratic functions to include relating x intercepts to solutions and real-life applications.
Kangaroo Jump • The height of a kangaroo can be modeled by the quadratic function: • h(t) = -16t2 + 24t • where h is the height in feet the kangaroo jumps at a given time t in seconds. • What is the dependent variable? • What is the independent variable?
h(t) = -16t2 + 24t • What are the x-intercepts and what information do they provide? • What is the y-intercept and what information does it provide? • What is the vertex and what information does it provide? • What is the range of the function? • What is the domain of the function ?
Projectiles • A projectile is fired vertically upward from a point above the ground, modeled by the function h(t) = -16t2 + 76t + 20, where t is measured in seconds and h is measured in feet.
h(t) = -16t2 + 803t + 600 • What is the x-intercept and what information does it provide? • What is the y-intercept and what information does it provide? • What is the vertex and what information does it provide? • Domain & Range ?
Population Growth • The population growth of a certain species of bacteria can be modeled by a quadratic function, • P(t) = 0.5t2 -7t + 50 • where t the time measured in minutes and p is the population measured in hundreds. • During the first few minutes of observation, the population decreases, but then begins to increase again over time. • Interpret what the ordered pair (2, 38) means for this model.
P(t) = 0.5t2 -7t + 50 • What is the x-intercept and what information does it provide? • What is the y-intercept and what information does it provide? • What is the vertex and what information does it provide? • If the bacteria growth was observed for 20 minutes, what was the initial population and what was the ending population? • Domain & Range and what do they mean ?
