y=5x2−2x
Parabola equation in polynomial form
The vertex of an up-down facing parabola of the form y=ax2+bx+cis xv=−b2a
The parabola parameters are:
a=5,b=−2,c=0
xv=−b2a
xv=−(−2)2·5
Simplify −−22·5:15
xv=15
Plug in xv=15to find the yvvalue
yv=−15
Therefore the parabola vertex is
(15,−15)
If a<0,then the vertex is a maximum value If a>0,then the vertex is a minimum value a=5
