Question

Enter the coordinates of the vertex of the graph of y=2(x+5)^2

Answer 1

vertex = (- 5, 0 )

Explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

y = 2(x + 5)² , that is y = 2(x + 5)² + 0 ← is in vertex form

with (h, k) = (- 5, 0 )

Answer 2

The vertex is ( -5,0)

Explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola is

y = a( x-h) ^2 +k

where ( h,k) is the vertex

y=2(x+5)^2

y=2(x - -5)^2 +0

The vertex is ( -5,0)
