Question

Find the vertex this parabola y = -x^2 - 2x + 6

Answer 1

Y=-x^2-2x+6 
To find the vertex I'm going to use the axis of symmetry formula: 
x=-b/2a 
x = 2/-2 
x = -1 
To find the y-value I'm going to plug in the x value in the above equation 
y=-(-1)^2-2(-1)+6 
y = -1+2+6 
y = 7 
The vertex is : 
(-1,7) 

:D :D :D 

Answer 2

Your answer will be (-1,7)
