Outcomes

A1.6.A

Determine the domain and range of quadratic functions and represent the domain and range using inequalities

A1.6.B

Write equations of quadratic functions given the vertex and another point on the graph, write the equation in vertex form (f(x) = a(x - h)2+ k), and rewrite the equation from vertex form to standard form (f(x) = ax2+ bx + c)

A1.7.A

Graph quadratic functions on the coordinate plane and use the graph to identify key attributes, if possible, including x-intercept, y-intercept, zeros, maximum value, minimum values, vertex, and the equation of the axis of symmetry

A1.8.A

Solve quadratic equations having real solutions by factoring, taking square roots, completing the square, and applying the quadratic formula
