Parts of a Parabola QuizOnline version It is time to put your parabola knowledge to the test! Analyze each parabola and identify the following: Range: The set of all possible y-values. Solutions (roots, zeros): The points where the parabola intersects the x-axis. Y-intercept: The point where the parabola crosses the y-axis. Axis of symmetry: The vertical line that divides the parabola in half. Vertex: The point where the parabola changes direction (maximum or minimum point). Let's see how well you can identify the parts of a parabola! by Algebra Help Desk 1 Does this graph have a minimum value, maximum value, or neither? a Min b Max c Neither 2 How many solutions does this graph have? a None b One c Two 3 What is the vertex of this graph? a (-1, -3) b (1, 3) c (-3, -1) d 4 What is the axis of symmetry of this graph? a x = 3 b x = -3 c y = -3 5 Does this graph have a minimum value, maximum value, or neither? a Max b Min c Neither 6 How many solutions does this graph have? a None b One c Two 7 What is the vertex of this graph? a (-1, 4) b (-4, 1) c (1, -4) 8 What is the axis of symmetry of this graph? a y = 1 b x = 1 c y = -3 9 What is the y-intercept of this graph? a y = 1 b x = 1 c y = -3 10 What are the solutions of this graph? a -1 and 3 b -3 and 1 c No solutions 11 What is the range of this graph? a {-∞, 4} b {-4, ∞} c All Real Numbers 12 Does this graph have a minimum value, maximum value, or neither? a Min b Max c Neither 13 How many solutions does this graph have? a Zero b One c Two 14 What is the axis of symmetry of this graph? a y = 4 b x = 2 c Does not exist 15 What is the y-intercept of this graph? a y = 4 b x = 2 c Does not exist 16 What are the solution(s) of this graph? a 2 b 4 and 3 c 4 17 What is the range of this graph? a All Real Numbers b {0, ∞} c {3, -∞} 18 Does this graph have a minimum value, maximum value, or neither? a Max b Min c Neither 19 How many solutions does this graph have? a Zero b One c Two 20 What is the vertex of this graph? a (-2, 8) b (2, -8) c (8, -2) 21 What is the axis of symmetry of this graph? a x = 2 b y = 4 c x = - 2 22 What is the y-intercept of this graph? a -4 b 4 c 1 23 What is the range of this graph? a {8, -∞} b {-5 > x > 5 } c All Real Numbers
