Quadratics and Complex Numbers

Christian is rewriting an expression of the form y = ax² + bx + c in the form y = a(x – h)² + k. Which of the following must be true?

• k and c have the same value

• the value of a remains the same

• h and k cannot both equal zero

• h is equal to one half –b

What is the first step when rewriting y = 6x² + 18x + 14 in the form y = a(x – h)² + k?

• x must be factored from 6x² + 18x

• 6 must be factored from 6x² + 14

• 16 must be factored from 18x + 14

• 6 must be factored from 6x² + 18x

Parabola A can be represented using the equation (x + 3)² = y, while line B can be represented using the equation y = mx + 9. Isabel claims one solution to the system of two equations must always be the vertex of parabola A.

Which best describes the reasonableness of her claim?

• Isabel is incorrect because the point of intersection between line B and parabola A that can be determined is the x-intercept of the equations, not the vertex.

• Isabel is correct because the y-intercept of line B is (0, 9) and the value of y when x = 0 in parabola A is 9.

• Isabel is incorrect because the point of intersection between line B and parabola A that can be determined is the y-intercept of the equations, not the vertex.
