1. Find the y-intercept:

a. b.

2. Simplify:

a. b.

3. Add:

Let x=0y-int (0,-7)

y-int (0,6)

y = ax2 + bx + c

The parabola will open down when the a value is negative.

The parabola will open up when the a value is positive.

x

The standard form of a quadratic function is

a > 0

a < 0

The graph of a quadratic function is called a parabola.

VERTEX

THE VERTEX IS THE

HIGHEST OR LOWEST

POINT OF THE

PARABOLA.

Line of Symmetry

LINE OF SYMMETRY

Parabolas have a symmetric property to them.

line of symmetry– the line that goes thru the vertex and divides the parabola in half.

FINDING THE LINE OF SYMMETRY

The equation of the line of symmetry is

x

FINDING THE VERTEXSTEP 1: Find the line of symmetry

STEP 2: Plug the x – value into the original equation to find the y value.

STEP 3: Write the answer as a coordinate.

FINDING THE Y-INTERCEPT

Step 1: Let x = 0

Step 2: Simplify, write the answer as a coordinate.

This means that the y-intercept of a quadratic function is always the value of c.
