Graphing Quadratics in Intercept Form

Instructions:
Explore and observe how the graph and corresponding equation changes when you move the sliders.[br][br]Answer the questions below the graph.
What are you initial observations?
What do you notice about [i]a [/i]and how does it change the graph and equation?
What do you think would happen if slider [i]a[/i] had different parameters (could go beyond -1 to 1)?[br] Hint: double click on the [i]a[/i] slider to change the max, min, and increment if you want to play around with it.
What do you notice about [i]m [/i]and how does it change the graph and equation?
What do you notice about [i]n [/i]and how does it change the graph and equation?
What happens when [i]m[/i] and [i]n[/i] are the same number?
What conjectures can you make from this activity?
