What is the arrow pointing at? How can you use this value?

• The arrow is pointing at the y-intercept. The x-value is the axis of symmetry and the y-value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum 

• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The x value of this point is equivalent to the maximum/minimum and the y-value is the axis of symmetry

• The arrow is pointing at the solution. The y value of this point is equivalent to the maximum and the x value is equivalent to the minimum

• The arrow is pointing at the vertex. The x-value is the axis of symmetry and the y-value is equivalent to the minimum/maximum
