Name: _______________________________ Unit 7: Quadratic Equations and Functions Section 1: Graph y = ax2 + c Quadratic Function – a nonlinear function that can be written in standard form, y = ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 0. Parabola – u-shaped graph of a quadratic function. Parent quadratic function – The most basic quadratic function, y = x2. Vertex – the lowest or highest point on a parabola. Axis of Symmetry – the line that passes through the vertex and divides the parabola into two symmetric parts.

Group Member #3

• Graph the equation • Identify the x-intercepts

Group Member #4

• Solve the equation by factoring When you’re done, put a star or circle your

• Factored form • Solutions • X-intercepts

Poster Summary

Equation Factored Form Solutions x -intercepts y = x2 – 6x + 8

y = -x2 + 8x – 12

y = x2 – 2x – 8

y = -x2 + 4x

y = x2 + 8x + 7

y = -x2 – 2x + 3

y = x2 – 4

y = x2 – 6x + 5

Why is the factored form referred to as intercept form? What is the relationship between the solutions of the equation and the x-intercepts?
