In this lesson, you learned how to:

• Explain how a quadratic equation and its graph relate to a situation.

Here are the activities that helped you reach those goals:

• 7.14.1: Evaluating Quadratic Functions in the Real World
  • In this activity, you found the meaning of values in a frog’s jump such as maximum height.
• 7.14.2: Interpreting a Functional Relationship Between Two Quantities
  • In this activity, you found values in a graph and interpreted their meanings based on the situation graphed.
  • 7.14.2: Self Check
  • 7.14.2: Additional Resources
• 7.14.3: Analyzing Functions Using Different Representations
  • In this activity, you compared the heights of two baseballs hit by using a graph of one baseball player and the function of another.
  • 7.14.3: Self Check
  • 7.14.3: Additional Resources
• 7.14.4: Using Quadratic Functions to Solve Problems
  • In this activity, you determined the information you would need to answer questions about the launch of a toy rocket.
• 7.14.5: Identifying Key Features of Graphed Functions
  • In this activity, you used an equation to determine the zeros of an equation and the height from which a beach ball was thrown.

After these activities, you completed the following practice:
