Quadratic Function
(y = ax2 + bx + c)




a, b, and c are called
the coefficients.
The graph will form a
parabola.
Each graph will have
either a maximum or
minimum point.
There is a line of
symmetry which will
divide the graph into
two halves.
y = x2



a = 1, b = 0, c = 0
Minimum point (0,0)
Axis of symmetry
x=0
y=x2
What happen if we change the
value of a and c ?
y=3x2
y=-3x2
y=4x2+3
y=-4x2-2
Conclusion

Solving Quadratic Functions
(ax2 + bx + c = 0)



Since y = ax2 + bx +c , by setting y=0
we set up a quadratic equation.
To find the solutions means we need to
find the x-intercept.
Since the graph is a parabola, there will
be two solutions.
To solve quadratic equations
(graphing method)




X2 - 2x = 0
To solve the
equation, put y =
x2-x into your
calculator.
Find the x intercept.
Two solutions, x=0
and x=2.
y=x2-2x
Find the Solutions
y=x2-4
y=-x2+5
y=x2+2x-15
y=-x2-1
Find the solutions
y=-x2+4x-1
