Question 1045232: Please help solve this. Detailed workings is very much appreciated, thanks.
The function of f is given by: f(x)= (2x-3)^2
The graph of f(x) has the shape of a parabola. Find the coordinates of its vertex. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Foil out the function
(2x-3)^2=4x^2-12x+9, just the way (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2
The vertex x point is at -b/2a or -(-12)/8=12/8 , or 1.5; a is 4, b is -12, and c is 9.
Go back to the original function
(2x-3)^2=(3-3)^2=0.
the vertex is at (1.5, 0)
