Quadratic Functions
Quadratic Function
A quadratic function is a function that can be written
in the form
f(x) = ax2 + bx + c
For real numbers a, b, and c, with a ≠ 0.

Definitions
The graph of every quadratic function is a
parabola.
The vertex is the lowest point on a parabola
that opens upward, or the highest point on
a parabola that opens downward.

Definitions
Graphs of quadratic equations have symmetry
about a line through the vertex. This line is called
the axis of symmetry.
The sign of a, the numerical coefficient of the
squared term, determines whether the parabola
will open upward or downward.

x-Intercepts of a Parabola
x-Intercepts of a Parabola
To find the x-intercepts (if there are any) of a quadratic
function, solve the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 for x.
This equation may be solved by factoring, by using the
quadratic formula, or by completing the square.

a. Since a is -1, which is less than 0, the parabola
opens downward.
b. To find the y-intercept, set x = 0 and solve for y.

Since the x-coordinate of the vertex is not a fraction,
we will substitute x = 4 into the original function to
determine the y-coordinate of the vertex.
y   x 2  8 x  12
y  (4) 2  8(4)  12
 16  32  12  4
The vertex is (4, 4).

Graph Quadratic Functions
d. Since the axis of symmetry is a vertical line
through the vertex, the equation is found using the
same formula used to find the x-coordinate of the
vertex (see part c). Thus, the equation of the axis of
symmetry is x = 4.

Thus, the x-intercepts are (2, 0) and (6, 0). These
values could also be found by the quadratic formula

Solve Maximum and Minimum Problems
A parabola that opens upward has a minimum value
at its vertex, and a parabola that opens downward has
a maximum value at its vertex.

Understand Translations of Parabolas
Start with the basic graph of f(x) = ax2 and translate, or shift, the
position of the graph to obtain the graph of the function you are

Notice that the value of a in the graph f(x) = ax2 determines the
width of the parabola. As |a| gets larger, the parabola gets
narrower, and as |a| gets smaller, the parabola gets wider.

If h is a positive real number, the graph of g(x) = a(x – h)2 will be
shifted h units to the right of the graph g(x) = ax2. If h is a negative
real number, the graph of g(x) = a(x – h)2 will be shifted |h| units to
the left.

Understand Translations of Parabolas
Parabola Shifts
For any function f(x) = ax2, the graph of g(x) = a(x-h)2 + k will
have the same shape as the graph of f(x). The graph of g(x)
will be the graph of f(x) shifted as follows:
• If h is a positive real number, the graph will be shifted h
units to the right.
• If h is a negative real number, the graph will be shifted |h|
units to the left.
• If k is a positive real number, the graph will be shifted k
units up.
• If k is a negative real number, the graph will be shifted |k|
units down.

Write Functions in the Form f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k
If we wish to graph parabolas using translations, we
need to change the form of a function from f(x) = ax2
+ bx + c to f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k. To do this we complete
the square as we discussed in Section 8.1.
Example Given f(x) = x2 – 6x + 10,
a) Write f(x) in the form of f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k.
b) Graph f(x).

Write Functions in the Form f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k
a) We use the x2 and -6x terms to obtain a perfect
square trinomial.
f ( x)  ( x 2  6 x)  10
Now we take half the coefficient of the x-term and
square it.

We then add this value, 9, within the parentheses.
f ( x)  ( x  6 x  9)  9  10

Write Functions in the Form f(x) = a(x – h)2 + k
By doing this we have created a perfect square
trinomial within the parentheses, plus a constant
outside the parentheses. We express the perfect
square trinomial as the square of a binomial.
f ( x)  ( x  3)  1

The function is now in the form we are seeking.
