Functions of the form y = ax2 + q


Leaderboards

Functions of the general form y = ax2 + q are called parabolic functions, where a and q are constants.

The effects of a and q on f(x) = ax2 + q :

The effect of q on vertical shift


Pricing

For q > 0, f(x) is shifted vertically upwards by q units.


Support

The turning point of f(x) is above the x -axis.

For q < 0, f(x) is shifted vertically downwards by q units.

The turning point of f(x) is below the x -axis.

q is also the y -intercept of the parabola.

The effect of a on shape

For a > 0; the graph of f(x) is a “smile” and has a minimum turning point (0; q) . As the value of a becomes
