Problem 60
How can the vertex of a parabola be used in solving real world problems?
Problem 106
Use the vertex \((h, k)\) and a point on the graph \((x, y)\) to find the general form of the equation of the quadratic function. \((h, k)=(2,3),(x, y)=(5,12)\)
Problem 139
Write the equation of the quadratic function that contains the given point and has the same shape as the given function. Contains \((2,3)\) and has the shape of \(f(x)=3 x^{2} .\) Vertex is on the \(y\) -axis.
Problem 146
Among all of the pairs of numbers whose sum is 6, find the pair with the largest product. What is the product?
Problem 155
In general, explain the end behavior of a power function with odd degree if the leading coefficient is positive.
Problem 166
For the following exercises, find the degree and leading coefficient for the given polynomial. $$-2 x^{2}-3 x^{5}+x-6$$
Problem 222
For the following exercises, use the written statements to construct a polynomial function that represents the required information. A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide. Squares of side 2 feet are cut out from each corner. Then the sides are folded up to make an open box. Express the volume of the box as a function of the width \((x)\).
Problem 223
What is the difference between an \(x\) - intercept and a zero of a polynomial function \(f ?\)
