I was able to put g(x) = 5x^2 &#8722; 30x + 55 into standard form like so g(x) = 5(x &#8722; 3)^2 + 10 I understand that the vertex is (3,10) however what does the g mean in this? I know it's a variable but I have a problem asking me if it's greater than or less than zero. I don't know how to find this. Also asking for it's max and min value which I think is the vertex and if it's upward then it's only a min because it's showing it's lowest point and the rest exceeds infinitely. Does that all sound correct?\r<BR>\n" );
