How do i graph in standard form?

First you have to find the intercepts by setting Y and then X equal to zero. then you plot the X and Y intercepts ad graph.

graphing in vertex form is quite easy. all you have to do is!......

Untitled Slide

• find the vertex
• since its vertex form the vertex will be at the point (H,K)
• find the Y intercept
• to find the y intercept let X equal zero and solve for Y

finding X and Y intercepts are probably the easiest ordeal in math class

To find X and Y intercepts you have to

Solving by factoring!!!

Untitled Slide

• move all terms to one side of the equation, usually the left, using addition or subtraction.
• Factor the equation completely.
• Set each factor equal to zero, and solve.
• List each solution from Step 3 as a solution to the original equation.

Solving by square roots

• Subtract 1 from both sides of this equation, you get 4x is equal to negative 1 plus 2, times the square root of 2.
• This equation, subtract 1 from both sides.
• 4x is equal to negative 1 minus 2, times the square root of 2.

Solving by quadratic formula (ax2+bx+c=0)

• solve for the value of x is to factor the quadratic, set each factor equal to zero
• then solve each factor.
• X=-b+_ 2a B^2 - (4(A)(C)) all over 2(A)

Example of real life quadratic solutions

Untitled Slide

• A ball is thrown straight up, from 3 m above the ground, with a velocity of 14 m/s. When does it hit the ground?

Untitled Slide

• The height starts at 3 m
• It travels upwards at 14 meters per second (14 m/s)
• Gravity pulls it down, changing its position by about 5 m per second squared
• h = 3 + 14t − 5t2
• 3 + 14t − 5t2 = 0
• Then solve!!
