A complete formative lesson with embedded slideshow, mini lecture screencasts, checks for understanding, practice items, mixed review, and reflection. I create these assignments to supplement each lesson of Pearson's Common Core Edition Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry courses. See also mathquest.net and twitter.com/mathquestEDU.
Question 1

Solve It! On this happy face, what quadratic functions have graphs that meet the following conditions? Consider only the domain 2 ≤ x ≤ 6.

â—† crosses the x-axis twice
â—† touches the x-axis only once
â—† misses the x axis completely

  • crosses the x-axis twice

Reasoning: For what value(s) of k does the equation below have one real solution? two real solutions?

  • k = 6
  • k > 6
  • k < 6
  • The equation has one real solution for the following value(s) of k.
  • The equation has two real solutions for the following value(s) of k.
Question 17
