2 . Lesson What You Will Learn Core Vocabular Previous average rate of change sstem of three linear equations Write equations of quadratic functions using vertices, points, and -intercepts. Write quadratic equations to model data sets. Writing Quadratic Equations Core Concept Writing Quadratic Equations Given a point and the verte (h, k) Use verte form: = a( h) + k Given a point and -intercepts p and q Use intercept form: = a( p)( q) Given three points Write and solve a sstem of three equations in three variables. Writing an Equation Using a Verte and a Point 3 1 Human Cannonball (,15) (5, 35) 6 Horizontal distance (feet) The graph shows the parabolic path of a performer who is shot out of a cannon, where is the height (in feet) and is the horizontal distance traveled (in feet). Write an equation of the parabola. The performer lands in a net 9 feet from the cannon. What is the height of the net? SOLUTION From the graph, ou can see that the verte (h, k) is (5, 35) and the parabola passes through the point (, 15). Use the verte and the point to solve for a in verte form. = a( h) + k Verte form 15 = a( 5) + 35 Substitute for h, k,, and. = 5a Simplif.. = a Divide each side b 5. Because a =., h = 5, and k = 35, the path can be modeled b the equation =.( 5) + 35, where 9. Find the height when = 9. =.(9 5) + 35 Substitute 9 for. =.(16) + 35 Simplif. =. Simplif. So, the height of the net is about feet. Monitoring Progress Help in English and Spanish at BigIdeasMath.com 1. WHAT IF? The verte of the parabola is (5, 37.5). What is the height of the net?. Write an equation of the parabola that passes through the point ( 1, ) and has verte (, 9). 76 Chapter Quadratic Functions
3 Writing an Equation Using a Point and -Intercepts Temperature ( C) Temperature Forecast (, 9.6) 1 1 REMEMBER (, ) (, ) Hours after midnight The average rate of change of a function f from 1 to is the slope of the line connecting ( 1, f( 1 )) and (, f( )): f( ) f( 1 ). 1 A meteorologist creates a parabola to predict the temperature tomorrow, where is the number of hours after midnight and is the temperature (in degrees Celsius). a. Write a function f that models the temperature over time. What is the coldest temperature? b. What is the average rate of change in temperature over the interval in which the temperature is decreasing? increasing? Compare the average rates of change. SOLUTION a. The -intercepts are and and the parabola passes through (, 9.6). Use the -intercepts and the point to solve for a in intercept form. = a( p)( q) Intercept form 9.6 = a( )( ) Substitute for p, q,, and. 9.6 = 96a Simplif..1 = a Divide each side b 96. Because a =.1, p =, and q =, the temperature over time can be modeled b f() =.1( )( ), where. The coldest temperature is the minimum value. So, find f() when = + = 1. f(1) =.1(1 )(1 ) Substitute 1 for. = 1 Simplif. So, the coldest temperature is 1 C at 1 hours after midnight, or p.m. b. The parabola opens up and the ais of smmetr is = 1. So, the function is decreasing over the interval < < 1 and increasing over the interval 1 < <. Average rate of change Average rate of change over < < 1: over 1 < < : f(1) f() = = f() f(1) 1 = ( 1) = 1 1 (, 9.6) (, ) 1 (1, 1) Because 1. > 1, the average rate at which the temperature decreases from midnight to p.m. is greater than the average rate at which it increases from p.m. to midnight.

4 Writing Equations to Model Data When data have equall-spaced inputs, ou can analze patterns in the differences of the outputs to determine what tpe of function can be used to model the data. Linear data have constant fi rst differences. Quadratic data have constant second differences. The first and second differences of f() = are shown below. Equall-spaced -values f() first differences: second differences: Writing a Quadratic Equation Using Three Points Time, t Height, h 1 6,9 15 9,5 3,6 5 31,65 3 3,1 35 3,5 31, NASA can create a weightless environment b fling a plane in parabolic paths. The table shows heights h (in feet) of a plane t seconds after starting the flight path. After about. seconds, passengers begin to eperience a weightless environment. Write and evaluate a function to approimate the height at which this occurs. SOLUTION Step 1 The input values are equall spaced. So, analze the differences in the outputs to determine what tpe of function ou can use to model the data. h(1) h(15) h() h(5) h(3) h(35) h() 6,9 9,5 3,6 31,65 3,1 3,5 31, Because the second differences are constant, ou can model the data with a quadratic function. Step Write a quadratic function of the form h(t) = at + bt + c that models the data. Use an three points (t, h) from the table to write a sstem of equations. Use (1, 6,9): 1a + 1b + c = 6,9 Equation 1 Use (, 3,6): a + b + c = 3,6 Equation Use (3, 3,1): 9a + 3b + c = 3,1 Equation 3 Use the elimination method to solve the sstem. Subtract Equation 1 from Equation. Subtract Equation 1 from Equation 3. 3a + 1b = 37 New Equation 1 a + b = 5 New Equation a = Subtract times new Equation 1 from new Equation. a = 11 Solve for a. b = 7 Substitute into new Equation 1 to find b. c = 1, Substitute into Equation 1 to find c. The data can be modeled b the function h(t) = 11t + 7t + 1,. Step 3 Evaluate the function when t =.. h(.) = 11(.) + 7(.) + 1, = 3,.96 Passengers begin to eperience a weightless environment at about 3, feet. 7 Chapter Quadratic Functions
5 Real-life data that show a quadratic relationship usuall do not have constant second differences because the data are not eactl quadratic. Relationships that are approimatel quadratic have second differences that are relativel close in value. Man technolog tools have a quadratic regression feature that ou can use to find a quadratic function that best models a set of data. Using Quadratic Regression Miles per hour, STUDY TIP Miles per gallon, The coefficient of determination R shows how well an equation fits a set of data. The closer R is to 1, the better the fit. The table shows fuel efficiencies of a vehicle at different speeds. Write a function that models the data. Use the model to approimate the optimal driving speed. SOLUTION Because the -values are not equall spaced, ou cannot analze the differences in the outputs. Use a graphing calculator to find a function that models the data. Step 1 Enter the data in a graphing calculator using two lists and create a scatter plot. The data show a quadratic relationship. 35 Step 3 Graph the regression equation with the scatter plot. In this contet, the optimal driving speed is the speed at which the mileage per gallon is maimized. Using the maimum feature, ou can see that the maimum mileage per gallon is about 6. miles per gallon when driving about.9 miles per hour. So, the optimal driving speed is about 9 miles per hour. 75 Step Use the quadratic regression feature. A quadratic model that represents the data is = QuadReg =a +b+c a= b= c= R = Maimum X=.9565 Y= Monitoring Progress Help in English and Spanish at BigIdeasMath.com 5.
