Quadratic FunctionFind the axis of symmetry and vertices:
f(x) = 2x2 – 5x + 1
g(x) = x2 + 2√3x + 3
h(x) = -3x2 + 5x – 3How many real roots does each
function have?Can you factor the above equations?
Quadratic FunctionMany times we can not factor the
quadratic function, either because it does not have integers for roots, or because it does not even have real roots. In those cases, we use the quadratic formula
Quadratic FormulaThe a, b and c are from the standard
form of the quadratic equation:
y = ax2 + bx + cThe quadratic formula may be used to
factor any quadratic function. The roots are:
a
acbbx
2
42
The discriminant is the number under the square root sign. The discriminant is:
The discriminant determines how many real roots the quadratic function has.

What are the # & type of roots if:
1. If the discriminant is positive?
2. If the discriminant is negative?
3. If the discriminant is zero?

GeometryThe seats in a theater are arranged in
parallel rows that form a rectangular region. The number of seat in each row of the theater is 16 fewer than the number of rows. How many seats are in each row of a 1161 seat theater?
AccountingTo approximate the profit per day for her
business, Mrs. Howe uses the formula p = - x2 + 50x – 350. The profit, p, depends on the number of cases, x, of decorator napkins that are sold.
How many cases of napkins must she sell to break even?
How many cases should she sell to maximize profit?
Find the maximum profit.
