Front

Factor the quadratic expression: 5x^2 - 28x + 32

Back

(5x - 8)(x - 4)

Front

What is the RANGE of the function y = x^2?

Back

(0, ∞)

Front

Describe the transformation from the parent square root function: y = \sqrt{x + 4}

Back

Shift left 4 units

Front

Describe the transformation from the parent absolute value function: y = |x| - 5

Back

Shift down 5 units

Front

Describe the transformation from the parent quadratic function: y = \frac{1}{4}x^2

Back

Vertical shrink by a factor of ¼

Front

What is the vertex form of a quadratic function?

Back

y = a(x - h)^2 + k, where (h, k) is the vertex.

Front

What does it mean for a function to be increasing?

Back

A function is increasing if, for any two points x1 and x2 where x1 < x2, f(x1) < f(x2).

Front

What is the axis of symmetry for the quadratic function y = ax^2 + bx + c?

Back

x = -\frac{b}{2a}.

Front

What is the difference between a linear function and a quadratic function?

Back

A linear function has a degree of 1, while a quadratic function has a degree of 2.

Front

What is the standard form of a quadratic equation?

Back

y = ax^2 + bx + c.
