Application of Quadratics

What was the height of the ball at 1 second?

• 3 feet

• 4 feet

• 5 feet

Heather dropped a water balloon over the side of her school building from a height of 80 feet. The approximate height of the balloon at any point during its fall can be represented by the following quadratic equation: h = -16t^2 + 80 About how long did it take for the balloon to hit the ground?

• 1.73 seconds

• 2.24 seconds

• 2.45 seconds

• 2.83 seconds

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

• a vertical translation 4 units up

• a vertical translation 4 units down

• a horizontal translation 4 units to the left

• a horizontal translation 4 units to the right

How did we transform from f(x) =x² 
to
g(x) = -3x²

• reflection in x-axis and vertical shift down

• reflection x-axis and vertical stretch

• horizontal stretch

• reflection x-axis and vertical compression

Which quadratic function is represented by the graph?

• y = 2(x - 4)² + 5

• y = 2(x + 4)² + 5

• y = -2(x - 4)² + 5

• y = -2(x + 4)² + 5
