Question

Identify the vertex of each parabola,and then write its corresponding equation.Use the form: y = (x – h) + k

Answer 1

From the graph we get that:

The vertex of the parabola 1 has coordinates (5,4), and its equation is:

$y=(x-5)^2+4$

The vertex of parabola 2 has coordinates (-3,-2), and its equation is:

$y=(x-(-3))^2+(-2)=(x+3)^2-2$
