I am not so sure of this but I feel it would serve as hint
<span>The vertex of the parabola is the highest or lowest point of the graph.
</span><span>y=-4x^2+8x-12 = -4 (x^2 -2x +3)
Lets work with this now: </span>x^2 -2x +3
x^2 -2x +3 -> what is the closeset perfect square?
x^2 -2x +1 = (x-1)^2
So
x^2 -2x +3 = (x-1)^2 +2
Replacing to original
y=-4x^2+8x-12 = -4 (x^2 -2x +3) = -4 ((x-1)^2 +2) = -4 (x-1)^2 - 8
The min or max point is where the squared part = 0
So when x=1 , y= -4*0-8=-8
This will be the max of the parabola as there is - for the highest factor (-4x^2)
The max: x=1, y= -8
We have been given the function

We have to find the value of f(3). In order to find the same, substitute x=3 in the given function.

Now, we simplify this step by step.
First of all
. Thus, we have

Now, we can easily simplify it by PEMDAS


Therefore, the value of f(3) is 98.

Answer:
12 in. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
3 x 8= 24
1/2. =0.5
24 x 0.5 = 12
