Lo

1. Go to Desmos.com
2. Click Start Graphing.
3. In the box on the left enter y =
x

To get the squared part press the on to onscreen keyboard.

4. What is the axis of symmetry of the graph?



5. What is the vertex of the graph?



2
6. Now exit your function on the left to make it y = ax

7. will appear. Click on the a. Play around with the slide bar.

8. What happens when you make a larger?





9. What happens when you make a negative?





10. Put the a slider on 1.

2
11. Edit your function to make it y
=
ax
+
bx
and add slider b.

12. Leaving a at 1, play around with b and what you notice?





2

13. Put the b slider on 0.

2
14. Edit your function to make it y =
ax
+
bx
+
c and add slider c.


15. Leaving a at 1 and b at 0, play around with c and what do you notice?







16. Playing around with the sliders try to get the axis of symmetry to be x=-2, the vertex to be (-2,-3)
and the roots to be at (-3,0) and (-1,0). Once you have accomplished this note youre a, b, and c
values and write the quadratic equation below. This may be difficultdo not give up.







17. Using the sliders come up with 5 quadratic equations that have a whole number vertex and whole
number roots and write those equations down.
