For the function [tex]y=-2x^2+4x+1[/tex], what are the coordinates of the vertex?


Is it a maximum or minimum point?


Hint: consider using [tex]x=-b/2a[/tex]. Show all work algebraically

Respuesta :

[tex]x_0=\dfrac{-b}{2a} =\dfrac{-4}{2\times(-2)}=1\\y_0=-2\times1^2+4\times1+1=-2+4+1=3\\Answer: The\: vertex\: is \:(1;3). It's\:maximum\:point \:because \:a=-2<0[/tex]
