More Examples

Example (1)Graph y=x2 - 6x + 7

The graph is facing upward. Why?

y= x2 - 6 x + 7 = (x- 3 )2 – 9 + 7= (x- 3 )2 – 2

The vertex of the parabola is (3 , - 2 )

The intersection with the y-axis is(0,7)y=x2 - 6x + 7 Why?

The intersections with the x-axis: (3+√2 , 0 ) and (3-√2 , 0 ) Why?

Example (2)Graph y=2x2 + 2x + 3

The graph is concave upward. Why?y=2[x2 +x] + 3 = 2[(x+½)2–¼] + 3= 2(x+½)2–½ + 3 = 2(x+½)2 + 5/2 The vertex of the parabola is ( - ½ , 5/2 )

The intersection with the y-axis is (0,3) Why?
