1. Find the coordinates of the vertex of the given quadratic function. Without graphing,
determine if the vertex is the maximum or minimum point of the quadratic function.

2. Use the vertex and the intercepts to sketch the graph of the given quadratic function.
Find the equation for this functions axis of symmetry.

3.

Given the polynomial function a) use the Leading Coefficient Test to

determine the graphs end behavior, b) find the x-intercepts (or zeros) and state
whether the graph crosses the x-axis or touches the x-axis and turns around at each x-
intercept, c) find the y-intercept, d) determine the symmetry of the graph, e) indicate the
maximum possible turning points, and f) graph.

4. Divide using long division.
