How do you get the equation of of a parabola from its x-intercepts?
Let us say you X intercepts are -2 and 3 set up (X + 2)(X - 3) FOIL X^2 - X - 6 = 0 ----------------------- your parabolic equation
How do you find the x-intercept of a parabola?
Factorise equation, and look at what x values are needed for the equation to equal zero. Eg. x^2+5x+6 (x+3)(x+2)=0 So parabola intercepts x axis at -3 and -2.
How do you find how many x intercepts the parabola has using the discriminant?
If the discriminant is negative, there are 0 interceptsIf the discriminant is zero, there is 1 interceptIf the discriminant is positive, there are 2 intercepts
Is parabola always yx2?
No, but any parabola can be transformed into the form y = x^2.
What are the zeros of functions and what do they represent?
The zeros of functions are the solutions of the functions when finding where a parabola intercepts the x-axis, hence the other names: roots and x-intercepts.
