Factoring Quadratics to Find Key Features of a Quadratic Graph

Write the equation for the function graphed in factored form

Hint: find the solutions and work backwards

• y = (x + 1)(x + 5)

• y = (x - 1)(x - 5)

• y = -(x + 1)(x + 5)

• y = -(x - 1)(x - 5)

Find the x-intercepts of the quadratic function by factoring: x² + 3x - 18 = 0

• x = -3 and x = 6

• x = 3 and x = -6

• x = -9 and x = 2

• x = 9 and x = -2

Find the axis of symmetry:

• x = 1

• x = 3

• x = 5

• x = -4

Match each point with the key feature it represents according to the graph

• Point E

• not a key feature

• Point B

• left zero

• Point C

• vertex

• Point D

• right zero

• Point A

• y-intercept
