Question 906423:  A quadratic function is given. 
f(x) =   
(a) Express the quadratic function in standard form. 
f(x) = ____  
(b) Find its vertex and its x- and y-intercept(s). (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) 
vertex...............(x, y) =	( _ , _ ) 
x-intercepts......(x, y) =	( _ , _ ) (smaller value) 
.........................(x, y) =	( _ , _ ) (larger value) 
y-intercept........(x, y) =	( _ , _ )

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! f(x) =   
(a) Express the quadratic function in standard form. 
  where   and   are vertex coordinates 
 .....complete the square 
  
  
  
so,  and   
 
(b) Find its vertex and its x- and y-intercept(s). (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.)
 
vertex...............(x, y) =	( 9 , 81 ) 
x-intercepts......(x, y) =	( 0 , 0) (smaller value) 
.........................(x, y) =( 18 , 0 ) (larger value) 
y-intercept........(x, y) =	( 0 , 0)

You can  put this solution on YOUR website! ve it to a better place:
 
    A quadratic function is given. 
    f(x) =-x^2+18x 
    (a) Express the quadratic function in standard form. 
    f(x) =-x^2+18x 
    (b) Find its vertex and its x- and y-intercept(s). 
y=-x^2+18x 
complete the square: 
y=-(x^2-18+81)+81 
y=-(x-9)^2+81 
vertex:(9,81) 
.. 
x-intercepts 
set y=0 
-x^2+18x=0 
-x(x-18)=0 
x=0 
and 
x=18 
.. 
y-intercept 
set x=0 
y=x^2+18x 
y=0
