Question

How to find the maximum or minimum value of a quadratic function?

Answer 1

Answer:

Vertex form

Step-by-step explanation:

You convert to  vertex form  a(x - b)^2 + c . The coordinates of the maxm/minm will be (b, c).

For example find minimum value of  x^2 + 5x - 6:-

x^2 + 5x - 6

=  (x + 2.5)^2 - 6.25 - 6

= (x + 2.5)^2 - 12.25

The coordinates of minimumm will be (-2.5, -12.25)  The values of the minimum of the function is -12.25
