Answer:

10. (x, y) = (-3/8, 2 9/16)

11. k = -1

Explanation:

10. The value of x at the vertex is ...

x = -b/(2a)

x = -(-3)/(2(-4)) = -3/8

The corresponding value of y is ...

y = 2 +(-3/8)(-3 +(-3/8)(-4)) = 2 +(-3/8)(-3/2) = 2 +(9/16)

The vertex is (x, y) = (-3/8, 2 9/16).

11. The discriminant is zero when the roots are equal.

b² -4ac = 0

(k-1)² -4(1)(-k) = 0

k² -2k +1 +4k = 0

k² +2k +1 = 0 . . . . . collect terms

(k +1)² = 0 . . . . . . . . write as a square

k = -1 . . . . . . . . . . . . the value of k that satisfies

Check

x² -2x +1 = (x -1)² = 0 . . . . has equal roots: x=1.
