Suitable for Grades: Algebra I, IM 1
CCSS: HSF.IF.C.7.A, HSF.LE.A.2
CCSS Description: Graph linear and quadratic functions and show intercepts, maxima, and minima.
Construct linear and exponential functions, including arithmetic and geometric sequences, given a graph, a description of a relationship, or two input‑output pairs (include reading these from a table).

Graphs of Quadratic Functions (A) WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION
Students will use tables of values to generate coordinates and subsequently plot the graphs of 4 quadratic functions when working through this worksheet.
The quadratic functions to be plotted are: y = x^2 + 5, y = x^2 - 10, y= 2x^2 + 3, and y = 3x^2 - x. For each function, a table of values is provided and laid out to encourage learners to work out each part of the function separately before combining. The first two tables also have a row dedicated to writing the values of x and y as coordinate pairs. Each time the values of x to be used are from -2 to 2.
Graphs are all plotted on separate axes, which are also pre-drawn for students.
