GOAL
Graph simple quadratic functions.
Vocabulary
A quadratic function is a nonlinear function that can be written in the
standard form y 5 ax 2 1 bx 1 c where a Þ 0.
Every quadratic function has a U-shaped graph called a parabola.
The most basic quadratic function in the family of quadratic functions,
called the parent quadratic function, is y 5 x 2.
LESSON 10.1
The lowest or highest point on a parabola is the vertex.
The line that passes through the vertex and divides the parabola into
two symmetric parts is called the axis of symmetry.

Compare the graphs of y 5 26x 2 and y 5 x 2.
Both graphs have the same vertex, (0, 0), and
the same axis of symmetry, x 5 0. However,
the graph of y 5 26x 2 is narrower than the
graph of y 5 x 2 and it opens down. This is
because the graph of y 5 26x 2 is a vertical
stretch (by a factor of 6) of the graph of y 5 x 2
and a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of y 5 x 2.

Both graphs have the same vertex, (0, 0), and the same axis of symmetry, x 5 0. However, the graph of y
5 28x 2 is narrower than the graph of y 5 x 2 and it opens down. This is because the graph of y 5 28x 2 is a
vertical stretch (by a factor of 8) of the graph of y 5 x 2 and a reflection in the x-axis of the graph of y 5 x 2.

For an expression of the form x 2 1 bx, you can add a constant c to
the expression so that the expression x 2 1 bx 1 c is a perfect square
trinomial. This process is called completing the square.

Retirement Savings For the period 1995–2005, the amount of dollars
invested in an individual’s retirement account can be modeled by the
function y 5 30x2 2 24x 1 15,500 where x is the number of years since
1995. In what year was $17,000 invested?

EXAMPLE 3
a. The quadratic equation cannot be factored easily, and completing
the square will result in many fractions. So, the equation can be
solved using the quadratic formula.
b. The quadratic equation can be solved by completing the square
because the equation can be rewritten in the form ax 2 1 bx 1 c 5 0
where a 5 1 and b is an even number.
c. The quadratic equation can be solved using square roots because
the equation can be written in the form x 2 5 d.

Find the number of x-intercepts
Find the number of x-intercepts of the graph of y 5 x2 2 12x 1 36.
Solution
Find the number of solutions of the equation 0 5 x 2 2 12x 1 36.
b2 2 4ac 5 (212)2 2 4(1)(36)

Substitute 1 for a, 212 for b, and 36 for c.
Simplify.
The discriminant is zero, so the equation has one solution. This means that the graph
of y 5 x 2 2 12x 1 36 has one x-intercept.
CHECK
You can use a graphing calculator to check your answer. Notice that the
graph of y 5 x 2 2 12x 1 36 intercepts the x-axis once.
Find the number of x-intercepts of the graph.
