Can you show me the steps in solving the following: Find the vertex:
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = x^2 - 10x + 34
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the vertex using the axis of symmetry formula; x = -b/(2a)
\n" ); document.write( "in this equation; a=1, b=-10
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"%28-%28-10%29%29%2F%282%2A1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"10%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = 5 is the axis of symmetry
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find y
\n" ); document.write( "y = 5^2 - 10(5) + 34
\n" ); document.write( "y = 25 - 50 + 34
\n" ); document.write( "y = 9
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Vertex: x=5, y=9
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
