Vertex is -b/2a. The variable b=2 and a=2. That finds the x coordinate of the vertex. Then to find the y coordinate you just plug the number you got for x (-1/2) into the equation. Like so:
y = 2x+2
y = 2(-1/2)+2
y = -1+2
y = 1
So your vertex is ( -1/2, 1 )
To graph your vertex you take your x coordinate (-1/2) and find it on the x axis of the graph (horizontal line). Then do the same for y (1) (on the vertical axis.
Now that you have your vertex graphed you can find out if it is minimum or maximum by looking at the direction in which the slope is going. If it goes in the positive direction (up) then it is a minimum since that is the lowest point that the line touches. If it is maximum it is opposite. The line faces down and the highest point the line touches is that point.

•Convert 20% to decimal.
To convert a number to a decimal, divide by 100
20 divided by 100= 0.2
•$171.70 x 0.2=34.34
•171.70 + 34.34=206.04

The amount of the markup is $34.34

I hope I did this right and it helps, calculating markup becomes easier to do when you get more familiar with it.
