Vertex and Zeros of a Quadratic Function Practice

Practice Problems

  1. f(x)=x^2-10x-56

    1. What are the zeros of the function?

    2. Write the smaller x first, and the larger x second.

      \text{smaller }x=
      \text{larger }x=

    3. What is the vertex of the parabola?

  2. f(r)=(r-14)^2-56.25

    1. What are the zeros of the function?

    2. Write the smaller r first, and the larger r second.

      \text{smaller }r=
      \text{larger }r=

    3. What is the vertex of the parabola?

  3. f(r)=-(r-12)(r+3)

    1. What are the zeros of the function?

    2. Write the smaller r first, and the larger r second.

      \text{smaller }r=
      \text{larger }r=

    3. What is the vertex of the parabola?

  4. h(x)=x^2-7x-8

    1. What are the zeros of the function?

    2. Write the smaller x first, and the larger x second.
