Quadratic Factoring Practice

What is the vertex form of a quadratic function?

• f(x) = 2a(x-h)² + k

• f(x) = a(x-h)² + k

• f(x) = (x+h)² + k

• f(x) = a(x-h) - k

Identify the vertex of f(x) = -2(x+1)² + 3

• (h,k)

• (3, 1)

• (-1,-3)

• (-1,3)

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = -1/2(x-4)² + 1?

• Compressed by 1/2, shifted 4 units right and 1 unit up

• Reflected across x-axis, compressed by 1/2, shifted 4 units right and 1 unit up

• Reflected across x-axis, stretched by 1/2, shifted 4 units left and 1 unit up

• Stretched by 1/2, shifted 4 units right and 1 unit down

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = x² + 8

• shifted up 8 units

• shifted down 8 units

• shifted left 8 units

• shifted right 8 units

What steps transform the graph y = x² to y = (x - 4)²

• Shifted down 4 units

• Shifted left 4 units

• Shifted right 4 units

• Shifted up 4 units

Which transformation maps the graph of
f(x) = x² to the graph of g(x) = (x + 4)²?

• a reflection across the line x = -4
• a reflection across the line y = -4
