3. Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Quadratic Functions and Models ♦ Learn basic concepts about quadratic functions and their graphs. ♦ Complete the square and apply the vertex formula. ♦ Graph a quadratic function by hand. ♦ Solve applications and model data. 3.1

4. Slide 3- 4 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Basic Concepts Recall that a linear function can be written as f(x) = ax + b (or f(x) = mx + b). The formula for a quadratic function is different from that of a linear function because it contains an x 2 term. f(x) = 3x 2 + 3x + 5g(x) = 5  x 2

5. Slide 3- 5 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Quadratic Function The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola—a U shaped graph that opens either upward or downward. A parabola opens upward if a is positive and opens downward if a is negative. The highest point on a parabola that opens downward and the lowest point on a parabola that opens upward is called the vertex. The vertical line passing through the vertex is called the axis of symmetry. The leading coefficient a controls the width of the parabola. Larger values of |a| result in a narrower parabola, and smaller values of |a| result in a wider parabola.

29. Slide 3- 29 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Quadratic Inequalities If an equals sign is replaced by >, , <, or ≤, a quadratic inequality results. A first step in solving a quadratic inequality is to determine the x-values where equality occurs. These x-values are the boundary numbers.
