5. Quadratic FunctionsA quadratic function is a function of the form f(x) = ax2 +bx +c where a, b and c are real numbers and a ≠ 0.Domain: the set of real numbersGraph: parabolaExamples: parabolas parabolas

The graph of any quadratic function is called a parabola. Parabolas are shaped like cups, as shown in the graph below.
If the coefficient of x2 is positive, the parabola opens upward; otherwise, the parabola opens downward.
The vertex (or turning point) is the minimum or maximum point.

Minimum and Maximum: Quadratic Functions
• Consider f(x) = ax2 + bx +c.
1. If a > 0, then f has a minimum that occurs at x = -b/(2a). This minimum value is f(-b/(2a)).
2. If a < 0, the f has a maximum that occurs at x = -b/(2a). This maximum value is f(-b/(2a)).
![Page 12: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Example 11a.• The maximum value of the function
f(x) = -3x2 – 2x + 4 is ____.
• A. 13/3• B. 3/13• C. 9• D. 13
![Page 13: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Example 11b.
• The function f(x) = x2 – 8x + 16 has _____.
• A. a minimum value at x = -4• B. a maximum value at x = -4• C. a minimum value at x = 4• D. a maximum value at x = 4
![Page 14: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Example 12.• The revenue of a charter bus company depends on the number of
unsold seats. If the revenue R(x) is given by R(x) = 5000 + 50x – x2, where x is the number of unsold seats, find the maximum revenue and the number of unsold seats that corresponds to the maximum revenue.
• Solution:
The revenue function, R(x) = 5000 + 50x – x2 is a quadratic function with a = -1, b = 50 and c = 5000. Since a = -1 < 0, the R(x) has a maximum that occurs at x = -b/(2a) and the maximum value is R(-b/(2a)).

POLYNOMIAL FUNCTIONS AND EQUATIONS
![Page 20: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The Remainder Theorem
• If P(x) is a polynomial and r is a real number, then if P(x) is divided by x – r, the remainder is P( r ).
![Page 21: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Example 1.• Find the remainder when (2x3 – 3x2 - 4x - 17)
is divided by (x – 3). • Solution:• Applying the Remainder Theorem, we have
P(3) = 2(3)3 – 3(3)2 – 4(3) – 17
= 54 – 27 – 12 – 17 = -2 • The remainder is -2.
![Page 22: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Example 2.• Use the Remainder Theorem to find the
remainder obtained by dividing the polynomial by the given binomial that follows it.

• A consequence of the remainder theorem is the Factor Theorem.
• It enables us to determine whether a specific expression of the form (x – r) is a factor of a given polynomial.
![Page 24: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Factor Theorem
• If P(x) is a polynomial and r is a real number, then P(x) has (x – r) as a factor if and only if P( r ) = Q.
![Page 25: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Example 3.• Show that (x – 4) is a factor of
(2x3 – 6x2 – 5x – 12).
Solution: Applying the Factor Theorem, we have• P(x) = 2x3 – 6x2 – 5x – 12• P(4) = 2(4)3 – 6(4)2 – 5(4) – 12
= 2(64) – 6(16) – 20 – 12
= 128 – 96 – 20 – 12 = 0
Therefore, by the factor theorem, (x – 4) is a factor of (2x3 – 6x2 – 5x – 12).

Example 4.• Use the Factor Theorem to show that the
given binomial is a factor of the polynomial.

Converse of the Factor Theorem
• If (x – r) is a factor of f(x) then
f(r ) = R = 0, then r is a zero of f(x).
![Page 28: 08 functions and their graphs - part 2](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061106/5445f320b1af9fca0b8b45c0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Example 5.• Determine whether (x + 1) is a factor
of 5x4 + x3 – 4x2 – 6x – 10.
• Solution:• P(x) = 5x4 + x3 – 4x2 – 6x – 10• P(-1) = 5(-1)4 + (-1)3 – 4(-1)2 – 6(-1) – 10
= 5 – 1 – 4 + 6 – 10
= - 4
Since P( -1) 0, then (x + 1) is not a factor of P(x) = 5x4 + x3 – 4x2 – 6x – 10.

• Determine whether the linear expression is a factor of P(x):
• a. x – 2 ; P(x) = 4x3 – 7x2 + x – 2 • b. x + 3 ; P(x) = 2x4 + 5x3 + 11x + 6• c. x + 2 ; P(x) = x4 + 2x3 – 12x2 – 11x + 6
