I have to identify the following components of each quadratic function then graph the function.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "1. y = x^2 + 2x - 3
\n" ); document.write( "axis of symmetry x= -b/2a:_____ ( i got -4, i can't remember how I got this)
\n" ); document.write( "In this equation using the form ax^2 + bx + c; a=1, b=2; axis of symmetry formula
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"%28-2%29%2F%282%2A1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"%28-2%29%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = -1, is the axis of symmetry
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "vertex(-b/2a,y):______
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute the value of x you had for the axis of symmetry
\n" ); document.write( "y = x^2 + 2x - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = -1^2 +2(-1) - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = 1 -2 - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = 4
\n" ); document.write( "Vertex: x=-1; y=-4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "y-intercept (c):_______
\n" ); document.write( "y intercept occurs when x=0
\n" ); document.write( "y = 0 + 2(0) - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = -3 is intercept
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "two other points:______
\n" ); document.write( "Choose two points for x, and find y
\n" ); document.write( "x = -2
\n" ); document.write( "y = -2^2 + 2(-2) - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = 4 - 4 - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = -3
\n" ); document.write( "1st point: -2, -3
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = +2
\n" ); document.write( "y = 2^2 + 2(2) - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = 4 + 4 - 3
\n" ); document.write( "y = 5
\n" ); document.write( "2nd point: 2, 5
\n" ); document.write( ":
