Writing Quadratic
Functions
Algebraic Reasoning
Use Vertex form when:
Given the vertex and a point.
1. Substitute values
2. Solve for a
3. Replace vertex and a in vertex form and convert to
standard form
Now Practice:
Use Intercept form when:
Given the zeros (x-intercepts) and a point.
1. Substitute values
2. Solve for a
3. Replace intercepts and a in intercept form and
convert to standard form
Now Practice:
Use System of Equations when:
Given the 3 points (graph or table)
1. Substitute values
2. Solve for each variable using systems
3. Replace a, b, and c in standard form
Use System of Equations when:
