T or F: All relations are functions. Do Practice 5-2 #5 and #6. TIP: When mapping domain to range, does each x coordinate only have one arrow from it to a domain?.

3a) p. 255 top, copy teacher demo of Reteach 10-2: for y = ax^2 + bx + c quadratics, the y-axis isn't going to be the axis of symmetry any more; the axis of symmerty is going to shift left or right by using the equation x = -b/2a, which, Step 1, will give you the new axis of symmetry and the x-coordinate of the vextex, which, Step 2, you then substitute into the quadratic to find the y-coordinate of its vertex.
