What is the equation of the following graph in vertex form?

OpenStudy (yoloshroom):

Lets see the graph :)

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

and here are my answer choices! :-) y = (x − 2)2 + 1 y = (x − 1)2 + 2 y = (x + 2)2 + 1 y = (x + 2)2 − 1

OpenStudy (yoloshroom):

Vertex form is given by the formula, y=a(x-h)^2+k right? Well the Point where the graph is at the highest is the vertex. So (h,k) is the vertex. in this case (2,1) is the vertex. So can u plug those into y=a(x-h)^2+k?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

@YoloShroom yes, and I got y=(x+2)2-1

OpenStudy (yoloshroom):

It's +k :) so it's y=(x-2)^2+1 :)

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

oh ok, so thats all I had to do to d=solve that problem?

OpenStudy (iwanttogotostanford):

could I have help with on more similar please?

OpenStudy (yoloshroom):

I believe so. It didnt ask you to solve for A so i think that's where it ends. If you need to solve for A though, you can plug in. And yes please! open a new thread and post!
