This week we looked at graphing our quadratic equations. Even looking at a simple equation can help to see the properties of the parabola. A parabola is a shape that forms.

y= + 6, means that the vertex moves up on the y-intercept, another thing we can analyze the equation is the coefficient, if the coefficient was negative then the parabola would be facing down, also you can see that the coefficient is equal to one, that means the parabola will stretch, if the parabola was less than one, the parabola would be compressed.
