This video tutorial demystifies quadratic equations by explaining their standard form, graphing techniques, and key features such as roots, axis of symmetry, and vertex. It also covers factoring methods to find roots and how to determine the y-intercept of a parabola.

What is the standard form of a quadratic equation?

• y = ax + bx + c

• y = ax^2 + bx + c

• y = ax^3 + bx + c

• y = ax^2 + bx^2 + c

In the quadratic equation y = ax^2 + bx + c, what are a, b, and c?

• Variables

• Coefficients

• Constants

• Exponents

How can you determine if a parabola opens upward or downward?

• By the sign of the coefficient of x

• By the sign of the coefficient of x^2

• By the value of c

• By the value of b
