Question

Find the vertex of this function and decide whether it is a maximum point or a minimum point. Also, lable what point it's specifically at.

Answer 1

Okay, here we have this:

Considering the provided graph we are going to identify the requested vertex and decide whether it is a maximum point or a minimum , so we obtain the following:

Let us remember that the lowest or highest point is the vertex of the parabola. In this case we can see that the highest point is (-1, 9). So the vertex is (-1, 9), and since it is the highest, then it will be a maximum.

In the image you can see the vertex drawn in blue.
