Texas Instruments: The Standard Form of a Quadratic Equation

For Teachers 9th - 10th Standards
In this activity, students explore the standard form of a quadratic equation, y = ax 2 + bx + c. They explore how the x-intercepts (zeros), y-intercept, and vertex are related to the graph of the standard form of a quadratic function.
