Big Idea: Quadratic Functions & Equations

Enduring Understandings
The family of quadratic functions has equations of the form y = ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 0. The graph of a
quadratic function is a parabola.

You can solve quadratic equations using several methods.

To model a data set, choose a function that most closely matches the pattern in the data or graph.

Essential Questions
How can you solve quadratic equations using concrete models, tables, graphs, and algebraic method?

What are the characteristics of quadratic functions?

How can you use functions to model real-world situations?
