A parabola.
Opening downward because the lead coefficient is < 0.
x-coordinate of the vertex:
y-coordinate of the vertex:
Hence, the vertex is at
Axis of symmetry:
y-intercept:
So y-intercept is
x-intercepts:
or
So the x-intercepts are
and
Since the y-intercept is
and the axis of symmetry is
,
the point
must also be on the graph.
