Front

What does the 'a' value in the vertex form indicate about the parabola?

Back

The 'a' value indicates the direction of the parabola (upward if a > 0, downward if a < 0) and the width (narrower if |a| > 1, wider if |a| < 1).

How do you factor a quadratic expression like 6x^2 - 27x?

Back

To factor 6x^2 - 27x, factor out the greatest common factor: 3x(2x - 9).

What does a vertical stretch by a factor of 5 mean for a quadratic function?

Back

A vertical stretch by a factor of 5 means that the 'a' value in the vertex form is 5, making the parabola narrower.
