Sketch the graph y=Ax^2 where A is a constant

If A is negative, then it would be like an upsidedown 'bucket' where the only intersection is in the origin.

If A is positive, then it would be similar but flipped on the x-axis. So it would look like a 'bucket' sitting on the origin.

How to transform graphs of functions?


Integrate the function f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c over the interval [0,1], where a, b and c are constants.


Explain why for any constant a, if y = a^x then dy/dx = a^x(ln(a))


Let f(x)=x^3-6x+3. i)Differentiate f(x) to find dy/dx. ii) Given that dy/dx = 12, find the value of x.
