What does 'a' represent in the vertex form of a quadratic equation?

Back

The coefficient 'a' determines the direction and width of the parabola. If 'a' is positive, the parabola opens upwards; if negative, it opens downwards.

Front

How do you find the maximum or minimum value of a quadratic function in vertex form?

Back

The maximum or minimum value occurs at the vertex. If 'a' is negative, the vertex represents a maximum; if 'a' is positive, it represents a minimum.

Front

Back

The maximum value is 4, which occurs at the vertex (3, 4).

What is the significance of the vertex in a quadratic function?

Back

The vertex indicates the highest or lowest point of the parabola, depending on whether it opens upwards or downwards.

Front

How can you determine if a quadratic function has a maximum or minimum?

Back

Check the sign of 'a' in the vertex form. If 'a' < 0, it has a maximum; if 'a' > 0, it has a minimum.

The vertex is (2, 5).
