Characteristics of Quadratic

What is the equation of the axis of symmetry?

• y = 4

• y = -4

• x = 4

• x = -4

How many zeros does this parabola have? 

• 3
• 2
• 0
• 1

What is the arrow pointing at? How can you use this value to determine the minimum/maximum values?

• The arrow is pointing at the y-intercept. The y value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum 
• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The x value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum
• The arrow is pointing at the solution. The y value of this point is equivalent to the maximum and the x value is equivalent to the minimum
• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The y value is equivalent to the minimum/maximum

Determine the values of
a, b, and c for
the quadratic equation: 
4x² – 8x = 3

• a = 4, b = -8, c = 3
• a = 4, b =-8, c =-3
• a = 4, b = 8, c = 3
• a = 4, b = 8, c = -3
