Question

Okay so we're doing Quadratic equations and i'm trying to find the vertex. i have the AOS, but how do i find the vertex if 'x' is in the 'a' position?
the problem is y=x^2+6x-6

Answer 1

what did you get for the axis of symmetry

Answer 2

-3

Answer 3

how did you get - 3?

Answer 4

that's the x coordinate of the vertex, plug that into the equation to find y

Answer 5

y=x^2+6x-6

y=(-3)^2+6(-3)-6

y = ??

Answer 6

okay i got -12

Answer 7

close, but no

Answer 8

okay, i dont know where i went wrong

Answer 9

y=(-3)^2+6(-3)-6

y=9+6(-3)-6

y=9-18-6

y = ???

Answer 10

oh..wow okay -15?

Answer 11

yep

Answer 12

okay thanks
