What is a quadratic inequality?
Back
A quadratic inequality is an inequality that involves a quadratic expression, typically in the form ax^2 + bx + c < 0, ax^2 + bx + c > 0, ax^2 + bx + c ≤ 0, or ax^2 + bx + c ≥ 0.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you determine the direction of a parabola given a quadratic equation?
Back
The direction of a parabola is determined by the coefficient of the x^2 term. If the coefficient is positive, the parabola opens upwards; if it is negative, it opens downwards.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the vertex of a parabola, and why is it important?
Back
The vertex of a parabola is the highest or lowest point on the graph, depending on whether it opens up or down. It is important because it represents the maximum or minimum value of the quadratic function.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How can you find the maximum height of a projectile modeled by a quadratic function?
Back
To find the maximum height, you can use the vertex formula x = -b/(2a) to find the time at which the maximum height occurs, then substitute that time back into the function to find the height.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the significance of the discriminant in a quadratic equation?
Back
The discriminant (b^2 - 4ac) determines the nature of the roots of the quadratic equation. If it is positive, there are two distinct real roots; if it is zero, there is one real root; if it is negative, there are no real roots.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you solve a quadratic inequality graphically?
Back
To solve a quadratic inequality graphically, you first graph the corresponding quadratic equation, identify the x-intercepts, and then determine the intervals where the quadratic expression is above or below the x-axis.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the standard form of a quadratic function?
Back
The standard form of a quadratic function is f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are constants and a ≠ 0.
