The height of a hill, h(x), in a painting can be written as a function of x, the distance from the left side of the painting. Both h(x) and x are measured in inches.

The function relating the height of an object off the ground to the time spent falling is a quadratic relationship. Travis drops a tennis ball from the top of an office building 90 meters tall. Three seconds later, the ball lands on the ground. After 2 seconds, how far is the ball off the ground?
The image of a parabolic lens is projected onto a graph. The image crosses the x-axis at –2 and 3. The point (–1, 2) is also on the parabola. Which equation can be used to model the image of the lens?




Consider the quadratic function f(x) = x2 – 8x – 4. What is the value of the leading coefficient?
The image shows a geometric representation of the function f(x) = x2 + 2x + 3 written in standard form.

Which is one of the transformations applied to the graph of f(x) = x2 to change it into the graph of g(x) = 9x2 – 36x?
Which translation maps the graph of the function f(x) = x2 onto the function g(x) = x2 − 6x + 6?
Which function in vertex form is equivalent to f(x) = x2 + x +1?




Which is one of the transformations applied to the graph of f(x) = x2 to change it into the graph of g(x) = 4x2 + 24x + 30?
The graph of the function f(x) = –(x + 3)(x – 1) is shown below.
