Identify Vertex from Quadratic Equations

• minimum

• maximum

Convert the equation y= x²-2x-5 into vertex form. 

• y= (x-1)²-6

• y= -(x-1)²-6

• y= (x+1)²-6

• y= -(x+6)²-1

A parabola has a vertex at (1,6) and passes through (3,-18). Write the equation in vertex form.

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• f(x) = 3(x - 1)² - 18

• f(x) = -6(x - 1)² + 6

• f(x) = 6(x - 3)² - 18

• f(x) = -3(x + 1)² - 6

A parabola has a vertex at (-1.5,12.5) and passes through (0,8). Solve for "a" and write the equation in vertex form.

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• y = -1.5(12.5 - 8)²

• y = 2(x + 0)² + 8

• y = -2(x + 1.5)² + 12.5

• y = 8(x + 1.5)² - 12.5

• None of the above

A parabola has a vertex at (6, 5) and passes through (10, -11). Which equation represents this parabola in vertex form?

Formula: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

• -11 = a(10 - 6)² + 5

• y = -(10 - h)² + k

• y = -(x - 6)² + 5

• y = (x - 6)² + 5

Which answer choice(s) below correctly show(s) an equation in vertex form and in its standard form? (There may be more than 1.)

• y = -3(x + 2)² + 3

  y = -3x² - 12x - 15

• y = 2(x + 5)² + 1

  y = 2x² + 20x + 51

• y = 0.5(x - 3)² - 6

  y = 0.5x² - 3x - 1.5

What information do you need to write an equation in vertex form? Select all that apply.

• an ordered pair anywhere on the parabola

• the coordinates for the vertex

• the formula for standard form

• the formula for vertex form

Given the equation above, which of the following statements is FALSE?

• The graph opens upward.

• The vertex is at (7, 4).

• The parabola crosses the x-axis twice.

• The standard form is y= 2x² - 28x + 102.

• The axis of symmetry is x = 7.
