Question

What is the value of h when the function is converted to vertex form? Note: Vertex form is p(x)=a(x−h)^

2+k . p(x)=x^2−14x+29

Answer 1

the answer is 7

Explanation:

i took the quiz and got 100%

Answer 2

The vertex form is given by:
p(x)=a(x-h)^2+k
p(x)=x^2-14x+29
c=(b/2)^2=(-14/2)^2=49
hence:
x^2-14x+49=-29+49
(x-7)^2=20
hence:
p(x)=(x-7)^2-20
thus, h=7
