Ch. 2 Quadratics Review

What is the equation for axis of symmetry?

• y=3
• x=3
• x=5
• x=1

What are the green dots called?

• axis of symmetry
• vertex
• parabola
• roots or x-intercepts

Standard form of a quadratic equation

• y=x²
• y=ax²+bx+c
• y=mx+b
• y=x

Does this parabola have a maximum or minimum?

• Maximum
• Minimum

What is the equation for this parabola in factored form?

• y=(x+2)(x-1)
• y=(x-2)(x+1)
• y=(x-2)(x-1)
• y=(x+2)(x+1)

A parabola is upside-down when a is:

• negative
• positive
• 0
• infinite

Which answer choice describes  y = -3x² +7x - 2 accurately?

• opens up with a maximum
• opens up with a minimum
• opens down with a maximum
• opens down with a minimum 

What is the arrow pointing at? How can you use this value?

• The arrow is pointing at the y-intercept. The x-value is the axis of symmetry and the y-value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum 
• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The x value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum and the y-value is the axis of symmetry
• The arrow is pointing at the solution. The y value of this point is equivalent to the maximum and the x value is equivalent to the minimum
• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The x-value is the axis of symmetry and the y-value is equivalent to the minimum/maximum

Which of the following is the correct equation for the given graph?

• f(x) = (x - 2)² - 1
• f(x) = (x + 2)² - 1
• f(x) = -(x + 2)² - 1
• f(x) = -(x - 2)² - 1

Determine the vertex of the parabola:
y = 5x² - 20x + 13

• (5, -7)
• (-2, -7)
• (2, -7)
• (-7, -2)
