1. consider a function that of the form f(x)=ax^2+bx+c, where a≠0. (a) what is the name for a function of this form? (b) what is the shape of its graph called? 2. convert the given form of the function into the other two forms. (a) standard form: y=x^2-2x-3 (b) vertex form: y-5=-2(x+1)^2 (c) intercept form: y=(x+2)(x-3)

1.  f(x) is a quadratic function.

(b) The shape is called a parabola.

im not sure

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
