Graph the function: Y=x^2+4x+3..

Vertex:

Axis of Symmetry:

Domain:

Range:

 

\(y=x^2+4x+3\)

 

This is a parabola because it is a polynomial of degree 2  (The highest power of x is 2)

 

There is an invisable +1 in front of the x^2    (1 is the leading coefficient)

Since the leading coefficient is positive the parabola is concave up.

 

\(y=x^2+4x+3\\ y=(x+3)(x+1)\\ \)

The roots of the parabola are where y=0

y will equal zero when  x+3=0  and when  x+1=0

roots are x = -3  and x = -1

 

The axis of symmetry will be half way between the roots

x=(-3+-1)/2 = -4/2 = -2

Axis of symmetry is   x = -2

 

When x=-2    y=2^2-4*2+3 = 4 -8 +3 = -1   So the vertex is (-2, -1)

 

 Domain:  \(x \in Z\)  (x can be anything)

 

Range:      \(y\ge-1\)

 

The vertex is where y=-1 so this is the lowest value that y can take.

 

and here is the graph

Hopefully you can get a lot from this Hayley but if you have questions, make sure you ask :D

This should help:

graph

Domain is from -infinity to infinity.  The range is all the valid values of y.  The graph should help you to figure that out.

It was the purpose of my creation to annoy people... And I pride myself on being good at it. In fact I have only been slugged 4 times. But they got hurt back so my " attackers" and I are even.

Yeah I know she didn't ruin it in this case but I hate it when I have a good comment and then someone asks me to repeat it or something... It just doesn't seem as good the second time around.
