Definition
A quadratic function table displays values of a quadratic function for various inputs, showing the relationship between the input and output.
Description
A quadratic function table is a useful tool for visualizing how changes in the input affect the output of a quadratic function. By listing input-output pairs, it helps in identifying patterns, such as symmetry and the location of the vertex. In real-world applications, function tables are used to model and analyze data, helping in making predictions and understanding trends. In math education, quadratic function tables aid students in connecting algebraic expressions with their graphical representations, enhancing their understanding of function behavior. They provide a practical method for exploring the effects of different coefficients and constants on the function's output.
An example of a quadratic function table might include inputs such as -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 and corresponding outputs calculated using the quadratic function
f(x) = x2 − 4x + 3
