QuadraticFunction A quadraticfunction has an x2term 2x2 + 5x – 6 or x2 – 4 or 10x2 + 5x or (x-2)2 Itsshapeis a PARABOLA
QuadraticFunction The place where the parabola turnsaroundiscalled the VERTEX The vertex is the minimum or maximum
QuadraticFunction The vertical line thatgoesthrough the vertex iscalled the AXIS OF SYMMETRY The axis of symmetryislike a mirror, the parabola is the same on eitherside
QuadraticFunction The SOLUTIONS of a quadraticfunction are the x-intercepts (the place where the graph hits the x-axis) There canbezero, one, or two solutions Solutions are alsocalledzeros or roots
Vertex Form y = a(x-h)2 + k (h,k) is the vertex a is the slope
To graph in vertex form 1st point – find vertex 2nd point – use slope to move from vertex 3rd point – reflect 2nd point in AOS
Transformations y = a(x-h)2 + k a <1 makeswider >1 makesthinner negative – reflects h negative moves right positive moves left k negative moves down positive moves up
Examples – write the equation Reflect, up 5, left 6 Thinner by 5, left 7 Down 8
