Question:
Investigate the one-parameter family of functions. Assume that a is positive.
(a) Graph f(x) using three different values for a.
(b) Using your graph in part (a), describe the critical points of f and how they appear to move as a increases.
(c) Find a formula for the x-coordinates of the critical point(s) of f in terms of a.
f(x) = (x − a)2

Myself a technical teacher having more than 20 plus years of experience. My students are there in many world renowned organisations and still they are in contact with me sharing their experience. I wish to express my ability to make the students to understand the difficult concepts too in a different way.
