Quadratic Equations: y X y X y X

The document discusses quadratic equations and their graphs. It defines quadratic equations as those with the highest power of x being x^2. Examples of quadratic equations are given. The graphs of quadratic equations form a parabolic shape because x^2 is always positive. The document shows how to graph quadratic equations by plotting points from a table of x and y values and connecting them. More complex quadratic equations require larger tables to graph accurately.

Quadratic Equations

A term like x
2
is called a square in algebra
because it is the area of a square with side x
The adjective quadratic
comes from the Latin word quadratum for square.
So a quadratic equation is one in which the highest index
number of a term with x in is x
2
Examples of quadratic equations:
y = x
2
y = x
2
+ 1
y = x
2
+ 3x - 10
Quadratic Equations
These equations can be drawn as graphs in the same way that we
know how to draw straight line graphs.
x -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3
y
By substituting the given values for x calculate the y value for
the following equation:
y = x

This generates coordinates to plot on a graph
(-3,9)
(-2,4)
(-1, 1)
(0, 0)
(1, 1)
(2, 4)
(3, 9)
Notice how the y values
are symmetrical

What is the name of
this shape?
Parabola
Why is it this shape?
because x
2
is always
positive, even when
x itself is negative
and the value of y
increases at a much
faster rate than x

The lowest point is called
the minimum

Drawing graphs of more complex quadratic functions
