write quadratic into vertex form

What are coordinates of the vertex of a parabola often represented by?

• (x, y)

• (x₂, y₂)

• (h, k)

• (r₂, d₂)

A parabola has a vertex at (1,6) and passes through (3,-18). Write the equation in vertex form.

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• f(x) = 3(x - 1)² - 18

• f(x) = -6(x - 1)² + 6

• f(x) = 6(x - 3)² - 18

• f(x) = -3(x + 1)² - 6

A parabola has a vertex at (-1.5,12.5) and passes through (0,8). Solve for "a" and write the equation in vertex form.

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• y = -1.5(12.5 - 8)²

• y = 2(x + 0)² + 8

• y = -2(x + 1.5)² + 12.5

• y = 8(x + 1.5)² - 12.5

• None of the above

Convert the equation from vertex form (shown) to standard form:

y = -3(x + 5)² - 4

Formula: y = ax² + bx + c

• y = 9x² - 15x + 21

• y = -3x² - 75x - 4

• y = 9x² + 90x + 221

• y = -3x² - 30x - 79

Your teacher gives you an equation in vertex form. If the "a" value is -3, select the statements below that are true.

• "a" will be -3 in standard form

• "a" represents a vertical compression

• "a" will become 9 in standard form

• the parabola will open downward

• "a" describes the horizontal shift

y = 2(x - 7)² + 4

Given the equation above, which of the following statements is FALSE?

• The graph opens upward.

• The vertex is at (7, 4).

• The parabola crosses the x-axis twice.

• The standard form is y= 2x² - 28x + 102.

• The axis of symmetry is x = 7.

Convert the equation into standard form:

y = -5(x + 2)² - 10

• y = -5x² - 20x - 30

• y = -5x² - 4x - 10

• y = 25x² + 100x + 90

• y = 25x² - 10x - 30

A parabola has a vertex at (6, 5) and passes through (10, -11). Which equation represents this parabola in vertex form?

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• -11 = a(10 - 6)² + 5

• y = -(10 - h)² + k

• y = -(x - 6)² + 5

• y = (x - 6)² + 5

Which of the following statements are TRUE?

Select all that apply.

• The "a" value is positive.

• The y-intercept is positive.

• It has two zeros.

• The axis of symmetry is x = 1.

• The vertex is at (0, 5).

What do we call the highest or lowest point of a quadratic?

• parabola
• vertex
• graph
• point
