Section 8.1 “Graphing f(x) = ax²” Quadratic Function A nonlinear function that can be written in the standard form f(x) = ax² + bx + c where a = 0. The graph of a quadratic function is in the form of a U-shape and called a parabola.
Graphing: f(x) = ax² y-axis f(x) = x² x-axis Vertex- Axis of Symmetry- “Parent Quadratic Function” x y 1 1 2 4 3 9 -1 1 -2 4 x-axis -3 9 Vertex- the lowest or highest point of the parabola Axis of Symmetry- the line that divides a parabola into 2 symmetric parts
Identifying Characteristics of Quadratic Functions Vertex: (-1, -2) Axis of Symmetry: x = -1 Domain: All real numbers Range: y ≥ -2

Graphing: y = ax² + c x-axis y-axis “Parent Quadratic Function” f(x) = x² g(x) = 3x² -3 Compare to the graph of the parent function f(x) = x2 g(x) = 3x²– 3 x y -3 1 2 9 x-axis -1 -2 9 g(x) is a vertical translation down 3 units and a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 y-axis
Graph the Following Functions. Compare to the graph of f(x) = x2. On Your Own Graph the Following Functions. Compare to the graph of f(x) = x2. g(x) = x2 – 5 h(x) = x2 + 3
Zeros of a Function an x-value for which f(x) = 0. A zero of a function is an x-intercept of the graph of the function. To find the zeros of a function, graph the function and locate the x-intercepts. f(x) = -12x2 + 3 x = ½ and -½
Find the Zeros of the Functions On Your Own Find the Zeros of the Functions y = x2 – 1 f(x) = -x2 + 25 f(x) = 4x2 – 16 x = 1 & -1 x = 5 & -5 x = 2 & -2
