\"f%28x%29=-2x%5E2%2B2x%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Complete the square to convert to vertex form, \"y=a%28x-h%29%5E2%2Bk\" where (h,k) is the vertex.
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29=-2x%5E2%2B2x%2B3\"

\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29=-2%28x%5E2-x%2B1%2F4%29%2B3%2B1%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"f%28x%29=-2%28x-1%2F2%29%5E2%2B7%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Vertex:(\"1%2F2\",\"7%2F2\")
\n" ); document.write( "The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry,\"x=1%2F2\".
\n" ); document.write( "The vertex value is the function max or min depending on whether the parabola opens upwards or downwards.
\n" ); document.write( "The sign of the \"x%5E2\" term determines direction of opening.
\n" ); document.write( "Positive upwards, negative downwards.
\n" ); document.write( "Since the coefficient is \"-2\", the parabola opens downwards and the vertex value is a maximum.
