Birthday Baseball Parabola

Take your birthday and use them as the coefficients for a quadratic equation. For example, Miss Rudolph’s birthday is 5/25/90, so her function could be f(x) = -5x2 + 25x – 90. If your last name is between N – Z, you will have a negative ‘a’. Change every other sign.

f(x) =
