§1.2 Learning Goals

Review the rectangular coordinate system

Graph several functions Study intersections of graphs, the

vertical line test, and intercepts Sketch and use graphs of quadratic

functions in applications



Points and Ordered-Pairs

To graph, or plot, points we use two perpendicular number lines called axes. The point at which the axes cross is called the origin. Arrows on the axes indicate the positive directions

Consider the pair (2, 3). The numbers in such a pair are called the CoOrdinates. The first coordinate, x, in this case is 2 and the second, y, coordinate is 3.



Plot-Pt using Ordered Pair

To plot the point (2, 3) we start at the origin, move horizontally to the 2, move up vertically 3 units, and then make a “dot”• x = 2• y = 3

(2, 3)



Example Plot the point (–4,3)

Starting at the origin, we move 4 units in the negative horizontal direction. The second number, 3, is positive, so we move 3 units in the positive vertical direction (up)• x = –4; y = 3

The Distance Formula

The distance between the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y1) on a horizontal line is |x2 – x1|.

Similarly, the distance between the points (x2, y1) and (x2, y2) on a vertical line is |y2 – y1|.

Pythagorean Distance

Now consider any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

These points, along with (x2, y1), describe a right triangle. The lengths of the legsare |x2 – x1| and |y2 – y1|.



Pythagorean Distance

Find d, the length of the hypotenuse, by using the Pythagorean theorem:

d2 = |x2 – x1|2 + |y2 – y1|2

Since the square of a number is the same as the square of its opposite, we can replace the absolute-value signs with parentheses:

d2 = (x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2



Distance Formula Formally

The distance d between any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by

Graph Intersections

How To Find Solutions to the Equality of Functions? • Graph Both Functions and Find

Intersections– At Intersections x & y are the SAME for both

functions, and ANY point on the graph is a “Solution” to Fcn

Thus at Intersections BOTH Fcns are Simultaneously Solved



Graph InterSection Example

Consider two Functions: Want to Find solution(s), xs, such that

Note that this Equation can NOT Solved exactly; The solutions are irrational Numbers• Such “NonAlgebraic” Eqns are Called

“Transcendental”

Quadratic Functions

All quadratic functions have graphs similar to y = x2. Such curves are called parabolas. They are U-shaped and symmetric with respect to a vertical line known as the parabola’s line of symmetry or axis of symmetry.

For the graph of f(x) = x2, the y-axis is the axis of symmetry. The point (0, 0) is known as the vertex of this parabola.



The Vertex of a Parabola

The FORMULA for the vertex of a parabola given by f(x) = ax2 + bx + c:

24, or , .

2 2 2 4

b b b ac bf

a a a a

• The x-coordinate of the vertex is −b/(2a). • The axis of symmetry is x = −b/(2a). • The second coordinate of the vertex is most

commonly found by computing f(−b/[2a])



Graphing f(x) = ax2 + bx + c

1. The graph is a parabola. Identify a, b, and c

2. Determine how the parabola opens• If a > 0, the parabola opens up. • If a < 0, the parabola opens down

3. Find the vertex (h, k). Use the formula

h, k b

2a, f

b

2a

.




4. Find the x-interceptsLet y = f(x) = 0. Find x by solving the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0.

• If the solutions are real numbers, they are the x-intercepts.

• If not, the parabola either lies – above the x–axis when a > 0 – below the x–axis when a < 0




5. Find the y-intercept. Let x = 0. The result f(0) = c is the y-intercept.

6. The parabola is symmetric with respect to its axis, x = −b/(2a)

• Use this symmetry to find additional points.

7. Draw a parabola through the points found in Steps 3-6.
