This is called completing the square. 


f(x) = 2x^2 - 8x + 5 
<span>
f(x) = 2(x^2 - 4x) + 5 </span>
<span>
f(x) = 2[(x-2)^2 - 4] + 5 </span>
<span>
f(x) = 2(x-2)^2 - 8 + 5 </span>
<span>
f(x) = 2(x-2)^2 - 3 </span>


f(x) is at a minimum when (x-2) = 0, therefore x = 2 
<span>
f(2) = 2(2-2)^2 - 3 </span>
<span>
f(2) = -3

Quadratic functions heeeeeellllppp
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that quadratic functions are parabolas when graphed.  The solutions are where the parabola crosses the x-axis.

1.   The vertex of the parabola in f(x) is (0, 9) which is above the x-axis and the parabola opens up.  So the parabola does not cross the x-axis.  Therefore the solutions are imaginary.

2.  The vertex of the parabola in g(x) is (9, 0) which is on the x-axis and parabola opens up.  Therefore, there is a double solution.

3.  The vertex of the parabola in h(x) is (-1, -9) which is below the x-axis and the parabola opens up.  Therefore, there are two real solutions.

I know this is a long explanation, but that is a way of looking at the problem.
