Question 1
1.

Solve It! The function below models the height h of a soccer ball as it travels distance x.

NOTE: This is not the ball in the image.

Graph the function at desmos.com/calculator and use your graph to respond to the Solve It! item below.

Question 4
4.

Take Note: Write the standard form of a quadratic function. Assume a ≠ 0 and use function notation beginning with "f(x)=".
HINT: Your equation should include a, b, and c.

Question 5
5.

Take Note: Some information about the quadratic function, including the location of the vertex, is "hidden" when the function is written in standard form. That seems like a disadvantage of the form. Identify and describe one advantage of standard form that was named in this lesson?

Problem 2 Got It? What is the graph of the function?


Plot the vertex, followed by the y-intercept to create the graph.

  • Click the graph tab.
  • Click on the graph background to add a point. Add two points to create a graph. Drag a point or type in x and y coordinates to edit its position. Click on a point to delete it.
  • After you have plotted all graphs, click on x or y intercept tab to graph the intercepts.

If a > 0,
(0, c).
Parabola is the shape of the graph of
the axis of symmetry.
-\frac{b}{2a} is
f\left(x\right)=ax^{2}+bx+c,\ \ \ a\ne 0.
The line x=-\frac{b}{2a} is
the parabola opens upward.
The y-intercept is
the parabola opens downward.
