Quadratic function, or the vertex form of a quadratic function.
The standard form of a quadratic function (a parabola) is:
y = ax² + bx + c
The vertex form of a quadratic function (a parabola) is:
y = a(x – h)² + k
The quadratic function for a parabola in standard form can be converted to vertex form by completing the square.
I am going to use the standard form of a quadratic function:
y = ax² + bx + c
The standard form of quadratic equation would be:
ax² + bx + c = 0
Solve for x using the quadratic formula:
x = (-b/2a) ± [√(b² - 4ac)/2a]
the axis of symmetry (the x coordinate of the vertex) of the parabola is:
x_axis_of_symmetry = (-b/2a)
Since the axis of symmetry must be x = 1:
(-b/2a) = x_axis_of_symmetry
(-b/2a) = 1
Choose any value for a, and then solve for b
Or
Choose any value for b, and then solve for a
As an example, since the parabola must open downward, a must be negative.
let a = -1
(a = -1 is an arbitrary choice. You can choose any value for “a”, as long as it is a negative value.)
(-b/2a) = 1
-b/[2*(-1)] = 1
-b/(-2) = 1
b/(2) = 1
[b/(2)]*(2) = 1*(2)
b*(2/2) = 1*2
b*(1) = 1*2
b = 2
y = ax² + bx + c
substituting the values a = -1 and b = 2
y = -1*x² + 2*x + c
y = -x² + 2x + c
you can now choose a value for c
Strictly speaking, you can choose any value for “c”. However, your problem statement asks that you compute the x-intercepts. “c” must be a positive value for the quadratic function to cross the x-axis. So I recommend you choose a positive value for “c”.
for example, let c = 5
using the values a = -1, b = 2, and c = 5
>>> The standard form of the final quadratic function is:
y = -x² + 2x + 5
>>> The standard form of the final quadratic equation is:
0 = -x² + 2x + 5
>>> The vertex form of the final quadratic function is:
y = -(x – 1)² + 6
>>> The vertex form of the final quadratic equation is:
0 = -(x – 1)² + 6

Suppose there is a simple index of three stocks, stock abc, stock xyz, and stock qrs. stock abc opens on day 1 with 4000 shares at $3.15 per share. stock xyz opens on day 1 with 5000 shares at $4.30 per share. stock qrs opens on day 1 with 6000 shares at $4.60 per share. the price of stock abc on day 8 begins at $3.50. the price of stock xyz on day 8 begins at $3.90. stock qrs opens on day 8 with a price of $4.50 per share. assume that each stock has the same number of shares that it opened with on day 1. what is the rate of change of this simple index over 1 week?
