Graphing Quadratic Equations
Step 1: Find the axis of symmetry by x = -b/2a
Step 2: Find the vertex.
Substitute x-value into the equation to obtain the y-value of the vertex.
Step 3: Create a table with coordinate points 2 points on both sides of the line of symmetry.
12
f(x)=2x2−4x−1 Step 1: Line of Symmetry
Remember f(x)=ax2+bx+c .
So using x=2a−b , we see that
a=2, and b=-4 --> x=2(2)−(−4)=1
13
f(x)=2x2−4x−1
Step 2: Find the vertex
Since x=2a−b=1 , the substitute back into f(x). So f(1)=2(1)2−4(1)−1=3
The vertex (h,k) is (1,-3)
14
f(x)=2x2−4x−1 Step 3: Create a table
Begin with the vertex as the center point on the table.
Next find the two points on both sides of the line of symmetry. (Think on 2 values on the left and the right of symmetry)
