Study Guide - Quiz # 5
-
Solve a quadratic equation using factoring (problems like p. 156 # 7-22
and on-line RUReady problems under Solving Quadratic Equations).
-
Solve a quadratic equation using the quadratic formula (problems like p.
156 # 22-34 and on-line RUReady problems under Solving Quadratic Equations).
-
Given a quadratic function in vertex form, f(x) = a(x
- h)2 + k, determine whether it has a minimum
or maximum value, find that maximum or minimum, and graph the function
(problems like p. 164 # 17-20).
-
Find the vertex of a quadratic function in standard form, f(x)
= ax2 + bx + c-- by using the h = -b/2a
formula and k = f(h) and determine whether the vertex is a maximum
or minimum value for the function (problems like p. 164 #1-8 and on-line
RUReady problems under Quadratic Functions).
-
Solve a supply-demand-market equilibrium and a break-even point-maximization
problem involving quadratic functions (problems like p. 173-174 # 1, 2,
3, 5, 6, 9, 17, 18, 25).
-
Identify which of several graphs corresponds to a given piecewise-defined
function (problems like p. 185-186 # 11-14).
-
Use a piecewise-defined function to answer an applications problem (problems
like p. 189 # 46-50).
