Evaluate variable expressions with decimals, fractions, and mixed numbers

Evaluate variable expressions with decimals, fractions, and mixed numbers

What you'll learn

  • Identify the key features (vertex, axis of symmetry, intercepts, and concavity) of a quadratic function given its equation in standard, vertex, or factored form, and accurately sketch its corresponding graph.
  • Match a minimum of 8 out of 10 quadratic functions, presented in various forms (standard, vertex, factored), to their corresponding graphs, justifying each match based on the function's key features.
  • Explain the relationship between the coefficients of a quadratic function in standard form (ax² + bx + c) and the characteristics of its graph, including the direction of opening, y-intercept, and width.
  • Determine the equation of a quadratic function in vertex form, given its graph, with at least 75% accuracy, by identifying the vertex and an additional point on the parabola.
