Quadratics & Piecewise
by Micah Chambers
1. is one of the form f(x) = ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are numbers with a not equal to zero the graph of a quadratic function is a curve called a parabola
2. Parabolas may open upward or downward and vary in width or steepness but they all have the same basic U shape the picture below shows three graphs and they are all parabolas
3. The axis of the parabola can be given by 2ax+b=0, and is always parallel to y-axis It becomes the y-axis if b=0
3.1. sd
4. Summary- quadratics can be quadratic,cubic,square root, and others functions and piecewise can be also the same but they have kind of similar functions kind of the same and kind of not the same
5. create functions that behave differently based on the input (x) value.
6. Evaluating a piecewise function adds an extra step to the whole pro
