The y-value of the vertex is positive 3, as shown by the +3 on the right hand side of the equation, and the x-value is -1, from the (x+1)^2 (remember, when the number is inside the brackets, flip the sign) The vertex would be (-1, 3)
If you are looking for a rigorous answer (calculus), we must find the mininum point of the equation: f(x) = (x+1)^2 + 3 f
f'(x) = 2(x+1) = 2x + 2
2x + 2 = 0
x = -1
f(1) = (-1 + 1)^2 + 3
f(1) = 0 + 3 = 3
(-1, 3)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Probability (P) is calculated as
P = 
The first required outcome is a red sweet from a total of 3 + 5 = 8
P( red) = 
There are now 2 red left and a count of 7, since 1 has been eaten, thus
P( second red ) = 
P( red and red ) =
×
