The vertex of the quadratic function is (-1/47, -3/47).

The quadratic function using the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula is given by:

x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

where a, b, and c are the coefficients of the quadratic function. In this case, a = 141, b = 12, and c = 0.

Substituting these values into the quadratic formula, we get:

x = (-12 ± √(12² - 4 * 141 * 0)) / 2 * 141

x = (-12 ± √144) / 282

x = (-12 ± 12) / 282

x = -1/47 or x = -1/47

Since the quadratic function is symmetric, the vertex is the average of the two roots.

Therefore, the vertex of the quadratic function is (-1/47, -3/47).
