1 Graphing Quadratic Functions in Standard Form
Consider the function f(x) = 2x2 – 4x + 5. a. Determine whether the graph opens upward or downward. Because a is positive, the parabola opens upward. b. Find the axis of symmetry. The axis of symmetry is given by Substitute –4 for b and 2 for a. The axis of symmetry is the line x = 1.

2 Graphing Quadratic Functions in Standard Form
Consider the function f(x) = 2x2 – 4x + 5. c. Find the vertex. The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry, so the x-coordinate is 1. The y-coordinate is the value of the function at this x-value, or f(1). f(1) = 2(1)2 – 4(1) + 5 = 3 The vertex is (1, 3). d. Find the y-intercept. Because c = 5, the intercept is 5.

The x-intercepts are located at or near –0.45, 0.5, and The x-intercepts –0.45 and 4.45 do not correspond to any of the possible rational roots.

21 f (x) = a[x – (–1)](x – 2)[x – (2 – i)](x – (2 + i)]
Find a Polynomial Function Given Its Zeros Write a polynomial function of least degree with real coefficients in standard form that has –1, 2, and 2 – i as zeros. Because 2 – i is a zero and the polynomial is to have real coefficients, you know that 2 + i must also be a zero. Using the Linear Factorization Theorem and the zeros –1, 2, 2 – i, and 2 + i, you can write f (x) as follows: f (x) = a[x – (–1)](x – 2)[x – (2 – i)](x – (2 + i)]

22 f (x) = (1)(x + 1)(x – 2)[x – (2 – i)][x – (2 + i)] Let a = 1.
Find a Polynomial Function Given Its Zeros While a can be any nonzero real number, it is simplest to let a = 1. Then write the function in standard form. f (x) = (1)(x + 1)(x – 2)[x – (2 – i)][x – (2 + i)] Let a = 1. = (x2 – x – 2)(x2 – 4x + 5) Multiply. = x4 – 5x3 + 7x2 + 3x – 10 Multiply. Therefore, a function of least degree that has –1, 2, and 2 – i as zeros is f (x) = x4 – 5x3 + 7x2 + 3x – 10 or any nonzero multiple of f (x). Answer: Sample answer: f (x) = x4 – 5x3 + 7x2 + 3x – 10

27 Find Vertical and Horizontal Asymptotes
A. Find the domain of and the equations of the vertical or horizontal asymptotes, if any. Answer: D = {x | x ≠ 1, x }; vertical asymptote at x = 1; horizontal asymptote at y = 1

28 Key Concept 3 You must use long division to find the oblique asymptote

29 Identify the zeros, y-int and asymptotes of the function. Then graph.
3x2 + x x2 – 9 f(x) = x(3x – 1) (x – 3) (x + 3) f(x) = Zeros: 0 and – 1 3 Vertical asymptote: x = –3, x = 3 Horizontal asymptote: y = 3 Y-int: (0, 0)

30 The values of h and k affect the locations of the asymptotes, the domain, and the range of rational functions whose graphs are hyperbolas.
