Building an Explicit Quadratic Function by Composition

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Building an Explicit Quadratic Function by Composition assessment also includes:
  • Solution
  • Join to access all included materials

Use equivalent expressions to reveal information about their graphs. Pupils verify that two quadratic functions are equivalent. By comparing the two expressions, they determine the vertex, the zeros, the y-intercept, and the direction it opens. Scholars analyze compositions to determine their order and the resulting transformations in building the function.
