Easier to show you a simple example as I forget the formulaic approach.

X2 + 4X - 6 = 0

add 6 to each side

x2 + 4X = 6

Now, halve the linear term ( 4 ), square it and add it to both sides

X2 + 4X + 4 = 6 + 4

gather the terms on the right side and factor the left side

(X + 2)2 = 10

subtract 10 from each side

(X + 2)2 - 10 = 0

(- 2, - 10 )

Do you have find the croodinates for the vertex for the quadratic function?

Yes, the coordinates for the vertex of a quadratic function in the form (y = ax^2 + bx + c) can be found using the formula (x = -\frac{b}{2a}) to determine the x-coordinate. Once you have the x-coordinate, substitute it back into the original equation to find the corresponding y-coordinate. This gives you the vertex in the form ((x, y)).


How do you look at a graph and tell what the quadratic function i?

To determine the quadratic function from a graph, first identify the shape of the parabola, which can open upwards or downwards. Look for key features such as the vertex, x-intercepts (roots), and y-intercept. The standard form of a quadratic function is ( f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c ), where ( a ) indicates the direction of the opening. By using the vertex and intercepts, you can derive the coefficients to write the specific equation of the quadratic function.


What is a technique used to rewrite a quadratic function in standard form to vertex from?

A common technique to rewrite a quadratic function in standard form ( ax^2 + bx + c ) to vertex form ( a(x - h)^2 + k ) is called "completing the square." This involves taking the coefficient of the ( x ) term, dividing it by 2, squaring it, and then adding and subtracting this value inside the function. By rearranging, you can express the quadratic as a perfect square trinomial plus a constant, which directly gives you the vertex coordinates ( (h, k) ).

What different information do you get from vertex form and quadratic equation in standard form?

The graph of a quadratic function is always a parabola. If you put the equation (or function) into vertex form, you can read off the coordinates of the vertex, and you know the shape and orientation (up/down) of the parabola.

In the vertex form of a quadratic function y equals a the quantity of x-b squared plus c what does the b tell you about the graph?

The standard form of the quadratic function in (x - b)2 + c, has a vertex of (b, c). Thus, b is the units shifted to the right of the y-axis, and c is the units shifted above the x-axis.

How can you use a graph to find zeros of a quadratic function?

The zeros of a quadratic function, if they exist, are the values of the variable at which the graph crosses the horizontal axis.
