1. Quadratic Relations of the Form y = ax^2 + bx + c : 1. Determine the basic properties of quadratic relations
OE.10P.1.1
1.1 Investigating the Basic Properties of Quadratic Relations: Collect data that can be represented as a quadratic relation, from experiments using appropriate equipment and technology, or from secondary sources; graph the data and draw a curve of best fit, if appropriate, with or without the use of technology; determine, through investigation with and without the use of technology, that a quadratic relation of the form y = ax^2 + bx + c (a ? 0) can be graphically represented as a parabola, and that the table of values yields a constant second difference; identify the key features of a graph of a parabola (i.e., the equation of the axis of symmetry, the coordinates of the vertex, the y-intercept, the zeros, and the maximum or minimum value), and use the appropriate terminology to describe them; compare, through investigation using technology, the features of the graph of y = x^2 and the graph of y = 2^x, and determine the meaning of a negative exponent and of zero as an exponent
