\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you have a 2nd-degree polynomial function of the form , and the lead coefficient is negative, then the graph is parabola that opens downward. The vertex of the parabola represents the maximum of the function. The -coordinate of the vertex is given by and the -coordinate of the vertex, which is the maximum value of the function, is given by .\r
