Question

Which of the following is the vertex of the quadratic equation y = –4(x – 6)2 + 2?
(6, 2)
(6, –2)
(–6, 2)
(–6, –2)
and show me how you got that answer please?

Answer 1

\[y=a(x-h)^2+k => (h,k) \text{ is vertex }\]

Answer 2

so the equation you have is in that form

Answer 3

so what looks to be h=?

Answer 4

(-6,2)?

Answer 5

almost

Answer 6

h is 6
in both equations there is minus in front of them

Answer 7

oh okay so in the form you said because the h is - and in my equation is -6 so it turns to positive 6?
