About

Timing: Approximately 9 weeks

In this series, you will develop a strong foundation in the concept of quadratic functions. You will understand that quadratic functions have a linear rate of change and are often formed by multiplying two linear expressions, and therefore not linear. Quadratic functions are useful for modelling phenomena that have a linear rate of change and symmetry around a unique minimum or maximum. This foundational understanding of quadratics helps you build your conceptual knowledge of nonlinear functions and prepares you for further study of polynomial and rational functions in Algebra 2.

ENDURING UNDERSTANDINGS
You will understand that ...
- Quadratic functions have a linear rate of change.
- Quadratic functions can be expressed as a product of linear factors.
- Quadratic functions can be used to model scenarios that involve a linear rate of change and symmetry around a unique minimum or maximum.
- Every quadratic equation, ax2+bx+c=0ax^2+bx+c=0

, where aa

is not zero, has at most two real solutions. These solutions can be determined using the quadratic formula.

KEY CONCEPTS
- 1: Functions with a linear rate of change
- 2: The algebra and geometry of quadratic functions
- 3: Solving quadratic equations
- 4: Modelling with quadratic functions
