Bellwork reviewed graphing quadratics and writing the equation of a quadratic given the graph or given the vertex and one other point on the graph.
Hwk #15 is due today.
The remainder of the period we began discussing Sec 5-1, Quadratic Functions and Standard Form of a Quadratic Function.
Hwk #16 is due on Friday, Pages 241-242, Problems 12, 14, 18, 19, 21, 22, 33, 37

Bellwork reviewed how to find y-intercepts for any function, how to graph an Absolute Value function and how to write the equation of the graph of an Absolute Value function.
The remainder of the period we discussed how to graph and write equations for Quadratic Functions (sec 5-3).
Hwk #15 is due tomorrow, Pages 255-257, Problems 2, 3, 9, 19-21, 25, 43, 47, 70 (graph paper needed).

Bellwork reviewed ACT style math questions.
The remainder of the period we discussed transformations of the Parent Absolute Function y = |x| which takes the following form: y = a|x – h| + k
We used this function to begin discussing transformations of the parent Quadratic Function y = x^2 (sec 5-3).
Hwk #15 is due on Wednesday: Pages 255-257, Problems 2, 3, 9, 19-21, 25, 43, 47, 70. Students are to use graph paper to graph the quadratics.

Bellwork reviewed a linear programming problem (sec 3-4).
Hwk #14 is due today.
The remainder of the period we discussed graphs of Absolute Value Functions, y = a|x| and how changing the value of the coefficient of a affects the graph. This skill will be applied to graphs of quadratic functions in Chapter 5.
The Chapter 3 Test will be Frdiay.
