Graphing Quadratic Equations - By Marc Whitaker
00:03 | graphing quadratic equations . Here we have a quadratic equation | |
00:08 | . X squared plus six X plus five equals y | |
00:13 | after . Remember that ? That's one . So we | |
00:18 | have to figure out what the coefficients are . A | |
00:20 | equals one b equals six c equals bye . Now | |
00:32 | we can use the front end of the quadratic formula | |
00:38 | to find the line of symmetry , which is the | |
00:41 | first half of the Vertex . So X equals negative | |
00:46 | B over two A . In this case , that's | |
00:52 | negative . Six over two times one which is negative | |
00:58 | . Three . So X equals negative . Three is | |
01:04 | the line of cemetery and it's half the Vertex . | |
01:08 | So the line of symmetry would be over here somewhere | |
01:15 | . Now we're going to find a few points to | |
01:19 | plot X . Why , we're gonna start with the | |
01:27 | Vertex or a line of symmetry and put that in | |
01:34 | the middle . So we know the equation is X | |
01:40 | squared plus six times X plus five . That's ex | |
01:51 | . That's X , which is going to be negative | |
01:53 | . Three Negative three squared is nine six times negative | |
01:58 | . Three is negative . 18 plus five nine plus | |
02:04 | negative . 18 is negative . Nine Negative nine plus | |
02:07 | five is negative , for we're going to pick a | |
02:14 | few other points . Negative four . Negative five Negative | |
02:19 | . Two . Negative one . Since this shape is | |
02:25 | symmetric , we know that these two pairs those answers | |
02:34 | will be the same . And for these two pairs | |
02:38 | , those two answers will be the same . Which | |
02:41 | cuts our work in half . We only have to | |
02:43 | find one of them , and then the other one | |
02:45 | comes along for free and the principle that smaller numbers | |
02:49 | are easier to work with . I'm going to do | |
02:51 | these two , and then these two answers will come | |
02:53 | along for free . So this is X squared plus | |
02:57 | six X plus five . So that's negative . Two | |
03:03 | . Squared negative . Two . So that's four plus | |
03:09 | negative . 12 is negative . Eight . Negative eight | |
03:14 | plus five is negative . Three . Negative three and | |
03:22 | negative one negative one squared plus six times negative . | |
03:26 | One plus five one plus negative six is negative . | |
03:31 | Five plus five is zero , and that's going to | |
03:36 | be zero . Zoom in on this for a second | |
03:41 | , so you can see what I did . Alright | |
03:46 | , now it's time to graph these things . Negative | |
03:54 | . Five zero It's negative . Five zero Negative four | |
04:01 | Negative three Negative 1234 Negative 12 three Negative three negative | |
04:08 | . Four negative . 123 We have 123 four . | |
04:14 | So that's enough for me to sketch at first graph | |
04:24 | . If we continue , I'm going to bet that | |
04:26 | this side's got to look pretty much the same because | |
04:29 | it's symmetric . So negative , too negative . Three | |
04:33 | Negative two negative . Three . Negative 10 Negative one | |
04:40 | zero and it is . And we sketch the graph | |
04:47 | of the quadratic equation . Notice that the Vertex is | |
04:53 | that negative . Three . Negative four And the Vertex | |
05:01 | was the first point we found . We're going to | |
05:08 | do another one in just a moment . All right | |
05:11 | , Here's our second example , and once again , | |
05:14 | the coefficient of the square term is one . So | |
05:18 | we have a equals one b equals six c equals | |
05:24 | nine . So when it's time to find the Vertex | |
05:28 | , we start by finding the line of symmetry , | |
05:31 | which is half the vertex . That's X equals negative | |
05:36 | B over two A . In this case , that's | |
05:41 | negative . Six over two times , one , which | |
05:49 | is negative . Three . So once again , the | |
05:53 | line of symmetry happens to be at at negative three | |
05:57 | . Not that it's always at negative . Three . | |
05:59 | Just is on the two examples I happen to have | |
06:01 | picked , so ax equals negative three . Now we | |
06:07 | need to yes , find some more points . 12345 | |
06:21 | six points . We're going to start with negative three | |
06:28 | negative two negative 10 negative . Four . Negative five | |
06:36 | . And if you remember the equation , it's X | |
06:42 | squared . Plus six x six plus nine when X | |
06:52 | is negative . Three . Negative three squared is nine | |
07:01 | plus negative . 18 is negative . Nine plus nine | |
07:05 | is zero negative . Two . It's negative . Two | |
07:14 | squared plus six times negative . Two plus nine . | |
07:24 | That gives us four plus negative . 12 is negative | |
07:29 | . Eight . Negative . Eight plus nine is one | |
07:33 | , and that's going to be one . Because I | |
07:35 | know those two have to match . So next I'm | |
07:42 | going to do one negative one . I'm sorry . | |
07:45 | Negative . One squared , plus six times negative . | |
07:47 | One plus nine . One plus negative . Six is | |
07:53 | negative . Five negative . Five plus nine is four | |
07:59 | . And I know those to match . So this | |
08:04 | is four . And I'm gonna add one more point | |
08:07 | . I'm gonna do zero because it's so easy . | |
08:09 | Zero squared , plus six times zero plus nine . | |
08:16 | So zero plus zero plus nine is nine . Now | |
08:23 | that I've got some points , let's see if I | |
08:29 | can graph these and see what it looks like . | |
08:32 | Negative . Five four Negative . 123451234 Negative . Four | |
08:43 | . One Negative . Three zero Negative . Two one | |
08:54 | . Something's wrong here . What did I do wrong | |
08:57 | ? One . No negative 14 That's not wrong . | |
09:02 | Negative . One four and zero , nine 1234567 eight | |
09:14 | nine Would be somewhere up there as an estimate . | |
09:20 | So hopes . That's not very neat . Job looks | |
09:28 | roughly like that . If you have questions , don't | |
09:35 | hesitate to come in and ask me . |
