Outcomes

NC.M2.A-SSE.3

Write an equivalent form of a quadratic expression by completing the square, where a is an integer of a quadratic expression, ax^2 + bx + c, to reveal the maximum or minimum value of the function the expression defines.

NC.M2.F-IF.7

Analyze quadratic, square root, and inverse variation functions by generating different representations, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases, to show key features, including: domain and range; intercepts; intervals where the function is increasing, decreasing, positive, or negative; rate of change; maximums and minimums; symmetries; and end behavior
