Front

What is a maxima in a graph?

Back

A maxima is a point on a graph where the function value is higher than all nearby points, indicating a peak.

Front

What is a minima in a graph?

Back

A minima is a point on a graph where the function value is lower than all nearby points, indicating a trough.

Front

In the function f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, what does the coefficient 'b' represent?

Back

The coefficient 'b' represents the linear term in the quadratic function, affecting the slope of the graph.

Front

What is the vertex of a parabola?

Back

The vertex is the highest or lowest point of a parabola, depending on whether it opens upwards or downwards.

Front

How do you find the x-intercepts of a quadratic equation?

Back

Set the equation equal to zero and solve for x using factoring, completing the square, or the quadratic formula.

Front

What does it mean to stretch a graph vertically?

Back

Stretching a graph vertically means to multiply the function by a factor greater than 1, making it taller.

Front

What does it mean to compress a graph vertically?

Back

Compressing a graph vertically means to multiply the function by a factor between 0 and 1, making it shorter.

Front

What is the effect of shifting a graph to the left?

Back

Shifting a graph to the left means to add a positive value to the x-variable, moving the entire graph leftward.

Front

What is the effect of shifting a graph down?

Back

Shifting a graph down means to subtract a value from the function, moving the entire graph downward.
