Question

Is y=2x(x-2) a quadratic function????

Answer 1

The graph opens downward, so the vertex is the maximum point of the parabola. Example: The vertex of the parabola y = -(x + 9)2 + 4 is (-9, 4). The graph opens downward, so the vertex is the maximum point of the parabola.

If the value of "a" is positive, the parabola will open upward.
