Given
Procedure
Let's start by graphing the function
Now we are going to calculate each of the items
Axis of symmetry (x = 4)
The axis of symmetry of a parabola is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two congruent halves.
quadratic function in standard form
y = ax^2 + bx + c
Vertex (4, 9)
The vertex of a parabola is the highest or lowest point, also known as the maximum or minimum of a parabola.
Vertex form
x = 4, y = 9
Maximum or minimum (minimum)
Whether the parabola is a max or a min depends on the value of a
a>0 minimum
a<0 maximum
Domain (All real numbers)
The domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable.
The domain would be all real values
Range (y >= 9)
The set of all output values of a function.
We can see in the graph that the values are greater than 9
y-intercept (0, 25)
Where a line crosses the y-axis of a graph. Just find the value of y when x equals 0.
Roots (no roots)
Roots are also called x-intercepts or zeros.
We can see that there are no intersections with the x-axis in the figure.
