5.1 Quadratic Function 11/8/13

Graph is a parabola Vocabulary Quadratic Function : a function that is written in the standard form: y = ax 2 + bx + c where a ≠ 0 Ex: y = 3x 2 + 6x +2 Vertex:The highest or lowest point of the parabola. Vertex the line that divides a parabola into mirror images and passes through the vertex. Axis of symmetry: Axis of symmetry

Graph y = x 2 y=1x 2 + 0x + 0 where a = 1, b= 0 and c = 0 Simplest quadratic equation 1. Find and plot the vertex: To find y, plug x in the equation and solve for y. Vertex: (0, 0) 2. Draw the line of symmetry: Draw: x=0 3. Make an x-y chart. Choose 2 (or more) values for x to the right or left of the line of symmetry. Plug them in the equation and solve for y. 4. Graph the points (1, 1) & (2, 4). Mirror the points on the other side of the line of symmetry. Draw a U-shaped curve through the points. xy

Graph y = - x 2 Think y=-1x 2 where a = -1, b= 0 and c = 0 1. Find the vertex: To find y, plug x in the equation and solve for y. Vertex: (0, 0) 2. Draw the line of symmetry: Draw: x=0 3. Make an x-y chart. Choose 2 (or more) values for x to the right or left of the line of symmetry. Plug them in the equation and solve for y. 4. Graph the points. Mirror the points on the other side of the line of symmetry. Draw a U-shaped curve through the points. xy x= 1, y = y= -1 x = 2, y = y = - 4 Plot (1,-1) & (2, -4)

Graph of y = 1x 2 Graph of y = -1x 2 When a is positive, the parabola opens up. When a is negative, the parabola opens down.
