Page 2: First Quadratic Graph Exercise

This page presents a graph of y=x² - 2x - 3 with questions about its turning point and roots.

Example: The graph shows a U-shaped curve crossing the x-axis at two points, representing the roots of the equation.

Vocabulary: Turning point - the lowest or highest point on a quadratic graph where the curve changes direction.
