Graph the following function f(x)=-(x-1)^2 +2. Give the axis of symmetry, and label the vertex.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

axis of symmetry : y = 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how'd you get that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by graphing lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not doubting you...I just don't understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ok that's what I;m having trouble with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could you explain how you graphed this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertex is (1,2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and is the axis of symmetry y=2? and how would I graph this..would it just be a v looking graph pointing upward?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it will be pointing downward because theres a negative sign in front of the whole equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh OK

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah, and the axis of symmetry is x = 1...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would be the largest possible value for f(x) then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the vertex

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhh ok.....wow thanks for all of your help!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wtf, this site done broke
