Intro to Graphing Quadratics

What is the standard form of a quadratic equation?

• y = mx + b

• y = ax² + bx + c

• y = a(x - h)² + k

What is an axis of symmetry?

• all real numbers

• y = mx + b

• a line that divides the graph in 2 symmetrical halves

• y = 5

Define x-intercept:

• The highest or lowest point on the graph

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the x-axis, also known as solutions

• Where the parabola touches or intersects the y-axis

• A line the divides the graph into 2 equal parts
