Identify the vertex for the graph of y = 2x2 + 8x − 3. (2, 21) (2, 17) (−2, −11) (−2, −27)
Question
Answer:
[tex]\bf \textit{vertex of a vertical parabola, using coefficients}
\\\\
\begin{array}{lcccl}
y = & 2x^2& +8x& -3\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&a&b&c
\end{array}
\qquad
\left(-\cfrac{ b}{2 a}\quad ,\quad c-\cfrac{ b^2}{4 a}\right)
\\\\\\
\left( -\cfrac{8}{2(2)}~~,~~-3-\cfrac{8^2}{4(2)} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{-8}{4}~~,~~-3-\cfrac{64}{8} \right)
\\\\\\
\left(-2~~,~~-3-8 \right)\implies (-2~~,~~-11)[/tex]
