In algebra, a quadratic function, a quadratic polynomial, a polynomial of degree 2, or simply a quadratic, is a polynomial function in one or more variables in which the highest-degree term is of the second degree.
Standard form provides clues to what the graph of a quadratic function will look like. By inspecting a quadratic equation in standard form, y (x) = ax 2 + bx + c, you can get an idea of what the graph will look like. The leading coefficient tells you the direction the parabola opens, specifically. if a. if a. In addition, the constant c is the y-intercept of the quadratic function. This fact can be derived mathematically by setting x = 0 (remember, points lying on the y-axis must have x-coordinate equal to zero) in the standard form of a quadratic equation yielding, y (0) = a Â· 0 2 + b Â· 0 + c.
