Answer 1

Answer:

Vertex → (2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic equation has been given as,

y = -x² + 4x

We rewrite this equation in the form of a function as,

f(x) = - x² + 4x

By comparing this equation with the standard quadratic equation,

y = ax² + bx + c

a = -1 and b = 4

Vertex of the parabola represented by this equation is given by $[-\frac{b}{2a}, f(\frac{-b}{2a})]$

x coordinate = $-\frac{4}{2(-1)}$

                     = 2

y-coordinate = f(2)

                     = - (2)² + 4(2)

                     = -4 + 8

                     = 4

Therefore, vertex of the given function is (2, 4)
