    Thank you for this! I really struggle with Math, especially with graphing functions. This video is probably one of the most helpful I've ever seen. I have a test in three days and now I feel much more confident about it.

    @Tnc874 - in your next step, FOIL out the (x+7) since (x+7)^2 really means (x+7)(x+7). Once your foil that, add 10 to the other constant of 49. Your quadratic function should then be: y = x^2 +14x +59. then, use the steps in the video. Hope that helps.

    I just want to say a big thank you and you have been the most gifted in teaching this particular topic. I have been trying to help my son to understand this in the best possible way and your explanation is just phenomenal. I wish I grew up in these times. Thank you and keep it up.

    You're a great teacher man.. you actually bother to explain what the terms are and mean... I watched a few videos on this subject where the person would speed through and explain the copncept like we already knew what every was and meant... Cudos..

    My aunt said “If you can’t say something nice don’t say anything at all.” Well I’ve got something to say. Very nice presentation sir! Very clear. If you have the time and inclination I would love to see you derive -b/2a from f(x)=ax^2+bx+c algebraically. No calculus please (I’m not there yet but I’m working on it). It’s just a wish, please feel free to ignore this wish. Again, VERY nice presentation!
