This video tutorial explains how to convert quadratic functions from standard to factored form, especially when the leading coefficient is greater than one. It covers finding zeros and the axis of symmetry using graphing and factoring methods. The lesson includes a review of different quadratic forms, steps to solve for zeros, and how to determine the axis of symmetry. The tutorial also demonstrates factoring by grouping and solving for zeros from the factored form.
