Graphs of Quadratic Equations

1. Consider the quadratic function f(x) = –2x2 +  5x + 2. Find the y-intercept and the equation of the axis of symmetry.

Find the coordinates of the vertex of the quadratic function.

2. y = -5x2 + 20x – 13

3. Write an equation for the parabola whose vertex is at (2,6) and which passes through (4, -4).

4. Graph the quadratic equation or inequality. y = (x – 2)2 – 5
