### Quadratic Function Analysis

#### Consider the function \( g(x) = -\frac{1}{4}x^2 - \frac{3}{2}x - \frac{5}{4} \)

1. **What is the vertex of \( g \) ?**
   - [Text box for students to input the vertex]

2. **What is the equation of the line of symmetry of \( g \) ?**
   - [Text box for students to input the equation of the line of symmetry]

3. **The function \( g \) has a [Dropdown menu for students to select "maximum" or "minimum"] of**
   - [Text box for students to input the value of the maximum or minimum]

4. **The \( x \)-intercept(s) of \( g \) is/are**
   - [Text box for students to input the \( x \)-intercept(s)]

5. **The \( y \)-intercept of \( g \) is**
   - [Text box for students to input the \( y \)-intercept]

#### Graph \( g(x) \)

On the right side of the page is a coordinate grid labeled from -10 to 10 on both the x-axis and y-axis. Students are expected to graph the quadratic function \( g(x) = -\frac{1}{4}x^2 - \frac{3}{2}x - \frac{5}{4} \) on this grid. 

Below the graph, there are drawing tools for students to use:
- A straight line tool for drawing asymptotes or lines of symmetry.
- A curve tool for sketching quadratic functions.
- A point tool for plotting points such as intercepts or vertices.
- A circle tool, likely for highlighting important points or regions.

Students can use these tools to visually represent their findings on the graph provided.

### Instructions:
- Carefully calculate the vertex, the line of symmetry, and the intercepts before plotting them on the graph.
- Utilize the drawing tools provided to accurately represent the quadratic function and its key features.
- Double-check your answers for accuracy before moving forward.

This exercise aims to develop your skills in analyzing and graphing quadratic functions, reinforcing key concepts in algebra and visual data representation.
