What is the vertex of the quadratic function f(x) = (x-8)(x - 2)?

Answer:

The vertex is (5, -9).

Step-by-step explanation:

One way of approaching this problem consists of finding the roots.  Seet the quadratic equal to zero and solve for x:  {2, 8}.

The axis of symmetry is exactly halfway between 2 and 8:  x = 5.

Now find the y-component of the vertex by evaluating f(5):

f(5) = (5 - 8)(5 - 2) = -9

The vertex is (5, -9).  This is the minimum value of the function.  The graph of this quadratic opens up.

Maximize Q=3xy^2, where x and y are positive numbers such that x+y^2=2
Ivanshal [37]
Sub x = 2-y^2 to Q, we get:
Q = 3(2-y^2)*y^2
let y^2 = k
Q = 3(2-k)k = 3(2k-k^2)
2k-k^2 has a max when k = 1
Then y^2 = 1 -> y = 1 or -1
