Explain what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rewrite equation into vertex form y=x^2 + 14x +50

@CalebBeavers can you help me with this ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

X^2+14x= y+50 X^2+14+49=y+50+49 is this right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y = (x^2 + 14x) + 50 y = (x^2 + 14x + 49) + 50 - 49 y = (x + 7)^2 + 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, that gives a vertex of (-7, 1) which in this case is a low point on a parabola opening upwards.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

soo y = (x + 7)^2 + 1 is the vertex right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The general form for the vertex equation is: y = a(x - h)^2 + k where (h, k) is the vertex.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is the vertex form of the equation. The actual vertex is (-7, 1)
