Graphing Quadratic Functions

What is the vertex of the function   y = (x - 3)² + 5

• (-3, 5)
• (3, -5)
• (-3, -5)
• (3, 5)

A parabola has a vertex at (-3, 2). Where is the axis of symmetry?

• y = -2
• x = 3
• x = -3
• y = 2

Identify the vertex and whether the graph opens up or down.

• (5, 2); opens up
• (5, 2); opens down
• (-5, 2); opens up
• (-5, 2); opens down

Match the description to its equation.

Does the function y = -1/2(x+1)² have a maximum or minimum?

• Maximum

• Minimum

• Both

• Neither

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = 2(x+2)² - 5?

• Compress by 2, shifted 2 units left and 5 down

• Stretch by 5, shifted 5 units left and 2 down

• Stretch by 2, shifted 2 units left and 5 down

• Compress by 5, shifted 2 units left and 2 down

Write the equation of the quadratic in vertex form given the following:
vertex: (4, -2)
point: (0,-6)
opens down

• f(x)=(x-4)²-2
