Quadratic Equations Vertex

Your teacher gives you an equation in vertex form and wants you to convert it to standard form. Which one of the following describes the steps in the correct order?

• 1- Distribute the "a" value.

  2- Square the expression in parentheses.

  3- Combine like terms.

• 1- Sketch the graph on the coordinate plane.

  2- Identify 2 ordered pairs.

  3- Use STAT-EDIT and STAT>CALC-Option 4 (LinReg)

• 1- Square the expression in parentheses.

  2- Combine Like Terms.

  3- Distribute the "a" value.

• 1- Square the expression in parentheses.

  2- Distribute the "a" value.

  3- Combine like terms.

A parabola has a vertex at (-1.5,12.5) and passes through (0,8). Solve for "a" and write the equation in vertex form.

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• y = -1.5(12.5 - 8)²

• y = 2(x + 0)² + 8

• y = -2(x + 1.5)² + 12.5

• y = 8(x + 1.5)² - 12.5

• None of the above

A parabola has a vertex at (6, 5) and passes through (10, -11). Which equation represents this parabola in vertex form?

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• -11 = a(10 - 6)² + 5

• y = -(10 - h)² + k

• y = -(x - 6)² + 5

• y = (x - 6)² + 5

Which answer choice(s) below correctly show(s) an equation in vertex form and in its standard form? (There may be more than 1.)

• y = -3(x + 2)² + 3

  y = -3x² - 12x - 15

• y = 2(x + 5)² + 1

  y = 2x² + 20x + 51

• y = 0.5(x - 3)² - 6

  y = 0.5x² - 3x - 1.5

What information do you need to write an equation in vertex form? Select all that apply.

• an ordered pair anywhere on the parabola

• the coordinates for the vertex

• the formula for standard form

• the formula for vertex form

Convert the equation from vertex form (shown) to standard form:

• y = 9x² - 15x + 21

• y = -3x² - 75x - 4

• y = 9x² + 90x + 221

• y = -3x² - 30x - 79

Your teacher gives you an equation in vertex form. If the "a" value is -3, select the statements below that are true.

• "a" will be -3 in standard form

• "a" represents a vertical compression

• "a" will become 9 in standard form

• the parabola will open downward

• "a" describes the horizontal shift

• The vertex is at (7, 4).

• The parabola crosses the x-axis twice.

• The standard form is y= 2x² - 28x + 102.

• The axis of symmetry is x = 7.
