What are the properties of quadratic function?

In terms of the variable "x" it has terms added together which are constants (eg 1,29,100 etc), linear terms (eg x, 4x, 126x etc) and quadratic terms (eg x2, 6x2, 43x2 etc) and no others. Example 24+5x+3x2. It can always be factorized into the product of two linear expressions k(x+a)(x+b) where the constants may be real, imaginary or complex.

What is the function of relation domain and range in mathematics?

A relation is a mapping from elements of one set, called the domain, to elements of another set, called the range. The function of the three terms: relation, domain and range, is to define the parameters of a mapping which may or may not be a function.


How do you find out the formula for a Quadratic Sequence?

A quadratic sequence is when the difference between two terms changes each step. To find the formula for a quadratic sequence, one must first find the difference between the consecutive terms. Then a second difference must be found by finding the difference between the first consecutive differences.
