Identify Parts of a Quadratic Function

Write the equation of the parabola:

1)
X= -2,x=-4 (x+2)(x+4) x2+4x+2x+8
1) A soccer ball is kicked from the ground with an initial velocity of
Y=x2+6x+8
90 feet per second . The equation h=−16 t 2+ 90t gives the h of the ball
after t seconds.
Vertex: (−3 ,−1) Maximum or Minimum?
a. Find the maximum height of the ball.
Axis of Symmetry=-3

Y – Intercept: (0 , 8)
Domain: all real numbers
Range: y is greater than or equal to -1
b. How many seconds will it take for the ball to reach the ground?

2) Write the equation of the parabola:

X=5 x=-3 (x-5)(x+3) x2+3x-5x-15
Y=-x2-2x-15

2) The Apollo’s Chariot, a rollercoaster at The WIlliamsburg, Virginia

Vertex: (1 , 16) Maximum or Minimum? Busch Gardens, moves at 110 feet per second . The equation of the ride
can be represented by the equation h=−16 t 2+101 t+10 . What is the
Axis of Symmetry: X=1
maximum height reached by this ride?
Y – intercept: (0 , 15)
Domain: all real numbers
Range: y is less than or equal to 16

Write the equation of the parabola:

3) 3) Some fireworks are fired vertically into the air from the ground at an
X=2 X= -4 (X-2)(X+4) X2+4x-2x-8
initial speed of 80 feet per second . The equation for this object’s height
X2+2x-8
h at time t seconds after launch is h=−16 t 2+80 t . How long will it take
the fireworks to reach the ground?
Vertex: (1 ,−9) Maximum or Minimum?

Axis of Symmetry: X=1

Y – intercept: (0 ,−8)
Domain: all real numbers
Range: Y IS GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO -9
