The vertex is (-1,1)

Explanation

The vertex formula to find the x coordinate of the formula is -b/2a

So we plug in the values into the formula which is

-4/2(2)

Simplify it

-4/4
=-1
-1 is now the x cord of the vertex.

So now we will plug in the x into the quadratic equation which is 2x^2+4x+3

2(-1)^2 + 4(-1) + 3 = 2 -4 +3

Simplify it

5 - 4= 1

Y=1
So the Coordinates of the vertex is (-1,1)

PLEASE HELP I NEED THIS ASAP<br> Find the vertex of y=x^2-7x+4

Goshia [24]

Answer:

$\mathrm{Minimum}\space\left(\frac{7}{2},\:-\frac{33}{4}\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=x^2-7x+4\\\mathrm{The\:vertex\:of\:an\:up-down\:facing\:parabola\:of\:the\:form}\:y=ax^2+bx+c\:\mathrm{is}\:x_v=-\frac{b}{2a}\\\mathrm{The\:parabola\:params\:are:}\\a=1,\:b=-7,\:c=4\\x_v=-\frac{b}{2a}\\x_v=-\frac{\left(-7\right)}{2\cdot \:1}\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\x_v=\frac{7}{2}\\\mathrm{Plug\:in}\:\:x_v=\frac{7}{2}\:\mathrm{to\:find\:the}\:y_v\:\mathrm{value}\\y_v=\left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2-7\cdot \frac{7}{2}+4\\$

$\mathrm{Simplify\:}\left(\frac{7}{2}\right)^2-7\cdot \frac{7}{2}+4:\quad -\frac{33}{4}\\y_v=-\frac{33}{4}\\Therefore\:the\:parabola\:vertex\:is\\\left(\frac{7}{2},\:-\frac{33}{4}\right)\\\mathrm{If}\:a0,\:\mathrm{then\:the\:vertex\:is\:a\:minimum\:value}\\a=1\\\mathrm{Minimum}\space\left(\frac{7}{2},\:-\frac{33}{4}\right)$
