The video tutorial explains how to graph quadratic functions in standard form. It covers finding the vertex using the formula -b/2a, determining x-intercepts by setting y to zero and factoring, and calculating the y-intercept by substituting x with zero. The tutorial emphasizes the use of a data table to organize information and demonstrates plotting the graph using the vertex, x-intercepts, and y-intercept. The axis of symmetry and the range of the function are also discussed.

Why is it helpful to use a data table when graphing quadratic functions?

• It helps organize important points.

• It simplifies the equation.

• It makes the graph look nicer.

• It is required by all math teachers.
