options: Graph functions expressed symbolically and show key features of the graph, by hand in simple cases and using technology for more complicated cases.

Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function.

Compare properties of two functions each represented in a different way (algebraically, graphically, numerically in tables, or by verbal descriptions). For example, given a graph of one quadratic function and an algebraic expression for another, say which has the larger maximum.
problem_activity: Below is a graph of the height of a toy rocket over time. This is modeled by a quadratic function.

Describe the features of the function in terms of the intercepts, intervals where the function is increasing/decreasing, and intervals where the rate of change is constant/increasing/decreasing. Describe what each of these features means in the context of the problem.
