Question

f(x)=1/2(x+1)^2+6
vertex?
line of symmetry?
max/min of f(x)?

Answer 1

1/2(x+1)^2+6 is in the completing the square form

Answer 2

so, vertex is (-1,6)

Answer 3

symmetry at x=-1

Answer 4

It should be a minimum point since coefficient of x^2 is positive

Answer 5

would the graph look like this....roughly?

Answer 6

no, a minimum graph is

Answer 7

the one you drawn is maximum graph

Answer 8

ok ty
