Writing the equation of a quadratic function from the graph
Write an equation for the quadratic function
in
[link] as a transformation of
and then expand the formula, and simplify terms to write the equation in general form.
We can see the graph of
g is the graph of
shifted to the left 2 and down 3, giving a formula in the form
Substituting the coordinates of a point on the curve, such as
we can solve for the stretch factor.
In standard form, the algebraic model for this graph is
To write this in general polynomial form, we can expand the formula and simplify terms.
Notice that the horizontal and vertical shifts of the basic graph of the quadratic function determine the location of the vertex of the parabola; the vertex is unaffected by stretches and compressions.
A coordinate grid has been superimposed over the quadratic path of a basketball in
[link] . Find an equation for the path of the ball. Does the shooter make the basket?
The path passes through the origin and has vertex at
so
To make the shot,
would need to be about 4 but
he doesn’t make it.
Finding the domain and range of a quadratic function
Any number can be the input value of a quadratic function. Therefore, the domain of any quadratic function is all real numbers. Because parabolas have a maximum or a minimum point, the range is restricted. Since the vertex of a parabola will be either a maximum or a minimum, the range will consist of all
y -values greater than or equal to the
y -coordinate at the turning point or less than or equal to the
y -coordinate at the turning point, depending on whether the parabola opens up or down.
Domain and range of a quadratic function
The domain of any
quadratic function is all real numbers.

value is

A golfer on a fairway is 70 m away from the green, which sits below the level of the fairway by 20 m. If the golfer hits the ball at an angle of 40° with an initial speed of 20 m/s, how close to the green does she come?
A mouse of mass 200 g falls 100 m down a vertical mine shaft and lands at the bottom with a speed of 8.0 m/s. During its fall, how much work is done on the mouse by air resistance

A ball is thrown straight up.it passes a 2.0m high window 7.50 m off the ground on it path up and takes 1.30 s to go past the window.what was the ball initial velocity
2. A sled plus passenger with total mass 50 kg is pulled 20 m across the snow (0.20) at constant velocity by a force directed 25° above the horizontal. Calculate (a) the work of the applied force, (b) the work of friction, and (c) the total work.
you have been hired as an espert witness in a court case involving an automobile accident. the accident involved car A of mass 1500kg which crashed into stationary car B of mass 1100kg. the driver of car A applied his brakes 15 m before he skidded and crashed into car B. after the collision, car A s
can someone explain to me, an ignorant high school student, why the trend of the graph doesn't follow the fact that the higher frequency a sound wave is, the more power it is, hence, making me think the phons output would follow this general trend?
Nevermind i just realied that the graph is the phons output for a person with normal hearing and not just the phons output of the sound waves power, I should read the entire thing next time
Joseph
Follow up question, does anyone know where I can find a graph that accuretly depicts the actual relative "power" output of sound over its frequency instead of just humans hearing
