Graphing Quadratics and a, h, and k

Check and collect #32
Alg2_Quad_Graph_Sol.pdf
Return Ch. 5-1 Test
Review BM 8.2-8.3
BM 9.1: Effects of a, h, and k on a Quadratic
Retake Complex Benchmarks and Solving Quad BMs (BM 5.1, 6.1, 6.2, 8.2, 8.3)

Reminders:
Benchmarks 10.1 and 9.1 Wednesday
Grade Report #4 due Friday, 12/2 (Last day for it, too).
Practice Final/Make up Test on Friday, 12/2
Benchmarks 24.1-4 and 2.5-6 on Friday, 12/2
[As you can see, next Friday is a very big day! Please come prepared!]

What we learned today was interesting. Yet it was quite easy. I liked learning about Effects on a,h, and k on a quadratic.

In class we larned how to graph Quadratics which is hard to me but what is really east to me i think is Effects of a, h, and k for ex. y=x squared:V-(0,0) y=-4(x+1)squared-3 so, its left 1,down 3 units because of the negative its down and the positive one so its left (negative). and we took BM# 9.1 & 10.1

I think that benchmark 9.1 was really simple, and I feel really confident that i past it! Benchmark 10.1 is a whole different story i am still a little confused on how to find the x and y intercepts.

graphing quadratics is pretty easy for the most part but when it gets do the graphing part i get stuck sometimes because i don't know where to plot the points. Everything before that is pretty easy. Hopefully i well get in the hang of graphing the quadratic functions correctly.
