important it is to understand quadratic functions but also to explain how important they are in business. When we think about quadratic functions we may think about the u-shape of the parabola which may help us solve some word problems dealing with bouncing balls, satellite dishes, or model rockets. In business these functions will help us to show or forecast business profits and losses, moving objects, and determine the minimum and maximum values of expressions. As humans we are known to take the little

(Elasticity, para. 1). Elasticity was first studied in the late seventeenth century by the English scientist Robert Hooke (16351703). He made observations about elasticity using metal springs and eventually developed what is known as Hooke’s Law: The restoring force exerted by an elastic object is proportional to how far it has been distorted from its equilibrium state. Everything we associate with springs, has some place in the behavior of balls (Bloomfield, p.69). When a ball or a spring returns
