Answer:

  • f(x) vertex is a minimum
  • g(x) vertex is a maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

The reasoning is the same in each case: the sign of the coefficient of the squared term indicates the direction the parabola opens. If it opens upward, the vertex is a minimum; if it opens downward, the vertex is a maximum.

f(x) -- the sign of the squared term is positive, so the vertex is a <em>minimum</em>.

g(x) -- the sign of the squared term is negative, so the vertex is a <em>maximum</em>.
