Every quadratic equation has a U-shaped graph called this.
What is parabola?
Graph the equation. Must include vertex, and at least one point on each side. y=(x-5)(x-1)
What is graph on board?
x^2 + 6x + 9 = 25
x = -8, 2
x^2 + 7x - 30 = 0
x = -10, x = 3
2x^2 + 5x = -2
x = -0.5
x = -2
When a quadratic equation is written in this form y= a(x-h)^2 + k
What is vertex form
Put this function into vertex form:
h(t) = -16t^2 + 128t
h(t) = -16(t - 4)^2 +256
The line that runs through the vertex and divides the parabola in half.
What is axis of symmetry?
Name the vertex 2x^2 + 4x - 6 = 0?
What is (-1,-8)?
All play - Solve for x and y:
x^2 - 7x + 11 = y - 1
-x = -y - 4
This is is worth 1500 points
(-4, 0) (only one solution)
