Key Features of Quadratic Functions Explored

The video tutorial covers quadratic functions, focusing on their graphical representation as parabolas. It explains key attributes such as zeros, y-intercepts, axis of symmetry, vertex, domain, and range. The tutorial includes two examples to illustrate how to identify these attributes from a graph.

What does the vertex represent in a quadratic function's graph?

• The turning point

• The y-intercept

• The highest y-value

• The x-intercept

If a parabola opens upwards, what does its vertex represent?

• Maximum value

• X-intercept

• Y-intercept
