This video tutorial demonstrates how to convert a quadratic equation from a graph into standard form. It begins by explaining the standard form of a quadratic equation and the need to convert the graph into either vertex or factored form. The tutorial then walks through the process of converting the graph into factored form, finding the coefficient 'a' using a given point, and expanding the equation to achieve the standard form. The video concludes with a summary of the steps and encourages viewers to support the channel.

What is the first step in writing a quadratic equation in standard form from a graph?

• Find the axis of symmetry

• Identify the y-intercept

• Convert the graph to vertex form

• Determine the slope

Which of the following represents the standard form of a quadratic equation?

• y = ax^2 + bx + c

• y = mx + b

• y = a(x - h)^2 + k

• y = a(x - r)(x - s)

What is the purpose of converting a graph into vertex or factored form?

• To find the y-intercept

• To simplify the equation

• To determine the slope

• To eventually convert it to standard form

In the factored form y = a(x - r)(x - s), what do 'r' and 's' represent?

• The x-intercepts

• The y-intercepts

• The slope

• The vertex coordinates

How do you find the value of 'a' in the factored form of a quadratic equation?

• By calculating the slope

• By finding the vertex

• By using a given point on the graph

• By using the x-intercepts

What is the result of expanding the expression (x + 2)(x - 4)?

• x^2 + 2x + 8

• x^2 + 2x - 8

• x^2 - 2x + 8

• x^2 - 2x - 8

What is the final step in converting a quadratic equation from factored form to standard form?

• Calculating the slope

• Finding the x-intercepts

• Identifying the vertex

• Expanding the binomials

What is the standard form of the equation y = -2(x + 2)(x - 4) after expansion?

• y = -2x^2 + 4x + 16

• y = -2x^2 - 8x + 16

• y = -2x^2 - 4x + 16

• y = -2x^2 + 8x - 16

What is the significance of the coefficient 'a' in the standard form of a quadratic equation?

• It defines the axis of symmetry

• It determines the direction of the parabola

• It indicates the x-intercepts

• It represents the y-intercept

What is the purpose of expanding a quadratic equation from factored form?

• To determine the vertex

• To convert it to standard form

• To simplify the equation

• To find the x-intercepts
