Question

what is the min or max of y=x^2-10x+25

Answer 1

I think they are asking for the vertex because they say the minimum OR maximum

can you find the vertex?

Answer 2

I dont understand how to

Answer 3

I stink at explaining, but I have this

you can also put in your equation ion the bottom and the solution will be given....

Answer 4

Given equation is an expansion of (x - 5)^2 with solution 5 so max value is 5

Answer 5

can you explain how you got that

Answer 6

(x -5)^2 = x^2 - 10x + 25

(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2

Answer 7

x - 5 = 0 and x - 5 = 0

x = 5 Which is the max value for the equation

Answer 8

so what would be the vertex

Answer 9

Min or max value of function is given by c = -b^2/4a
c = -100/4 = -25 which means the given function has minimum value of -25
