This is a quadratic graph. I know it is quadratic because it is a parabola, which looks like a U(meaning A is positive) or an upside down U (meaning A is negative) in this case, it is a U. It has two x-intercepts, 2 and 6. It has one y-intercept, 12. The minimum point is -4. You can also tell that it is quadratic because the graph goes down, and then comes back up again and the numbers on both sides are the same.

This is a quadratic table. I know that it is quadratic because the differences of the differences are all the same number (2). I can also tell because the numbers in the y column decrease and then increase again, that tells me that the graph will do the same thing and create a parabola which I know indicates that the relationship is quadratic.

Reflection
Quadratic relationships were really hard for me at first. It seemed really complicated and I would get frustrated when I couldn't get the answer right. Now, I think I have a good understanding of quadratic relationships. It's still kind of hard but it's definitely easier than when we started working on them. I think this would be my favorite of all the things we've done this year.
