Classwork for Tuesday, November 24

How do we solve quadratic equations by graphing?

All Classes

Today we worked on three problems that will be evaluated as a quiz.

For each problem, you had to

  • Find the axis of symmetry Find the vertex
  • State whether it was a maximum or minimum point
  • Make a table of values, with the vertex in the middle
  • plot the graph.
  • State the roots, if possible.

The three problems were

  1. y = x2 + 2x - 3 = 0
  2. y = -x2 + 4x + 4
  3. y = x2 - 3x - 4

extra credit: y = x2 + 8x + 5

You should know all the formulas needed for this task.
