6 Steps to Graphing Quadratic Equations

1. Solve for line of symmetry using

2. Plug x value into original equation to find vertex (x,y).

3. Define vertex as a minimum or a maximum.

4. Find value of three numbers above and below line of symmetry value.

5. Plot points you have found.

6. Draw graph.
