4-1 Quadratic Eqn Trans

This document provides information about quadratic functions and their graphs. It defines a quadratic function as f(x) = ax2 + bx + c, where a ≠ 0. The graph of a quadratic function is a parabola, which opens up if a > 0 and opens down if a < 0. The vertex of the parabola is the point (h, k). It discusses how the graph of a quadratic function can be translated horizontally by changing the h value in f(x) = a(x - h)2 + k, and vertically by changing the k value. It provides examples of graphing quadratic functions and translating their graphs. It concludes by assigning practice problems from the textbook.
