F.IF.8.a Use the process of factoring and completing the
square in a quadratic function to show zeros, extreme
values, and symmetry of the graph, and interpret these in
terms of a context.
F.BF.3 Identify the effect on the graph of replacing f(x) by
f(x) + k, k f(x), f (kx), and f(x + k) for specific values of k
(both positive and negative); find the value of k given the
graphs. Experiment with cases and illustrate an
explanation of the effects on the graph using technology.
Mathematical Practices

You transformed graphs of functions.

• Write a quadratic function in the form

y = a(x – h)2 + k.
• Transform graphs of quadratic functions of
the form y = a(x – h)2 + k.

 Write Functions in Vertex Form

A. Write y = x 2 – 2x + 4 in vertex form.

y = x2 – 2x + 4 Notice that x2 – 2x + 4 is
not a perfect square.
y = (x2 – 2x + 1) + 4 – 1

Balance this addition by

subtracting 1.

 Write Functions in Vertex Form

B. Write y = –3x 2 – 18x + 10 in vertex form. Then

analyze the function.

y = –3(x2 + 6x) + 10 Group ax2 + bx and
factor, dividing by a.
y = –3(x2 + 6x + 9) + 10 – (–3)(9) Complete the square
by adding 9 inside
the parentheses.
Balance this addition
by subtracting –3(9).

You are given a graph of a parabola. You need to find
an equation of the parabola.

Solve the Test Item

The vertex of the parabola is at (2, –3), so h = 2 and
k = –3. Since the graph passes through (0, –1), let x = 0
and y = –1. Substitute these values into the vertex form
of the equation and solve for a.
