The video tutorial explains how to derive the equation of a quadratic function from its graph in three forms: vertex, general, and factored. It begins with analyzing the graph to identify key points such as the vertex and intercepts. The tutorial then details the process of writing the equation in vertex form, using the vertex and another point to find the value of 'a'. It proceeds to convert this equation into general form by expanding and simplifying. Finally, the video demonstrates how to factor the general form to obtain the factored form, highlighting the benefits of each form in understanding the graph's properties.

In the vertex form of a quadratic function, what does the sign of 'a' indicate?

• The x-coordinate of the vertex

• The y-intercept of the graph

• The width of the parabola

• The direction the parabola opens

How do you determine the value of 'a' in the vertex form of a quadratic equation?
