Question

Given the standard (vertex) form:F(x)=a(x-h)^2+kIdentify the vertex (h,k)F( x )= -7 (x- -8 )^2 +7Vertex: (Answer for coordinate 1,Answer for coordinate 2)

Answer 1

The vertex form says that

$f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k$

The vertex will be

$(h,k)$

If we have the function

$f(x)=-7(x-(-8))^2+7$

We can see that k = 7 and h = -8, it means that the vertex is

$(-8,7)$

Final answer:

The vertex is (-8, 7)
