Draw a rough sketch of the quadratic function. Label the vertex and any x and y intercepts. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "f(x)=-2(x-3)^2+8
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Notice that f(3) is 8.
\n" ); document.write( "That is the vertex.
\n" ); document.write( "Notice that -2(x-3)^2 is always negative for all values of x
\n" ); document.write( "so the parabola opens down from the vertex.
\n" ); document.write( "Notice that when x=0, y = 2*9+8 = 26; that is the y-intercept.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
