Math Problem Statement
Solution
From the image you provided, it appears you are working on a multiple-choice question related to identifying the vertex of a parabola. The graph shows a parabola opening upwards, and the vertex is the lowest point on the graph.
Looking closely at the graph, the vertex seems to occur at the point . Therefore, the correct answer to the question "What is the vertex?" would be:
(3, -1)
Would you like more details on how to determine the vertex from a graph?
Here are five related questions:
- How do you find the vertex from the equation of a parabola?
- What is the axis of symmetry of a parabola?
- How can you determine if a parabola opens upwards or downwards?
- How does the vertex relate to the maximum or minimum point of a parabola?
- Can the vertex be calculated from the standard quadratic form ?
Tip: The vertex form of a parabola’s equation is , where is the vertex.
