Choose all of the following equations that have a vertex that is the MINIMUM point of the parabola. y = x2 + 2x + 4 y = -16x2 + 2x - 4 y = 2x2 + 2x + 8 y = -x2 - 4x - 3

OpenStudy (eyust707):

ohh so this is actually very similar to the last one!

OpenStudy (eyust707):

these graohs either look like this:|dw:1339224844090:dw|

OpenStudy (keana):

not sure . this is minimum & that was downward & unless they mean the same thing i don't know

OpenStudy (eyust707):

or like this:|dw:1339224869252:dw|

OpenStudy (eyust707):

for this one the minimum would be right here:|dw:1339224897823:dw|

OpenStudy (eyust707):

beacuse thats the lowest point and the smallest possible y value

OpenStudy (eyust707):

we want to identify the graphs that look like this

OpenStudy (eyust707):

these are the graphs the open upwards

OpenStudy (eyust707):

which ones would you say open upwards?

OpenStudy (keana):

a & c ?

OpenStudy (eyust707):

=)

OpenStudy (eyust707):
