Graphing Quadratics FA

This document appears to be a formative assessment for identifying key features of functions from graphs and equations. It contains 4 levels that increase in difficulty: 1) identifying intercepts from graphs, 2) identifying intercepts from equations, 3) identifying intercepts and vertices from quadratic graphs and equations, and 4) graphing various functions and identifying their intercepts. For each level it provides examples for students to work through.
