igreen or anyway could i get somehelp

OpenStudy (anonymous):

one sec let me right it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the coordinates of the vertex of f(x)=(2x+1)^2+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@iGreen

OpenStudy (anonymous):

please explain how

OpenStudy (igreen):

What?

OpenStudy (igreen):

What do you mean by 'coordinates'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well thats the question so idk

OpenStudy (igreen):

Um, hold on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

take yah timebro

OpenStudy (igreen):

Do you have choices..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its a dba so one sec i think i figured something out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertex: (- 1/2 ,3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=4 h=-1/2 k=3

OpenStudy (igreen):

???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its fine dude nvm....do you understand it though its 9th grade so

OpenStudy (igreen):

I don't know what its asking exactly..

OpenStudy (igreen):

Is it asking for the vertex of the parabola?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

irs asking coordinates of vertex

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its

OpenStudy (igreen):

Oh, okay.

OpenStudy (igreen):

It's in vertex form..

OpenStudy (owlfred):

The vertex always occurs at the maximum or minimum of a parabola. There are many ways to find it. Just for starters, the vertex of \(f(x) = (ax + b)^2 + h\) occurs when \(ax + b\) = 0, and when it is \(0\), then the function would evaluate to \(h\).

OpenStudy (igreen):

\(f(x)=(2x+1)^2+3\) Vertex form: \(y = a(x – h)^2 + k \) Where vertex = (h, k)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

would h=-1/2 k=3

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yep!

thx
