I don't understand the coordinates of the vertex section. How did you find that equation with h and k and how did you get variables a and b? So we just plug in the values. So we can plug in:.
So we know that the x coordinate of the vertex is 2. For more on how this works, check out this page: So those are our x values. Let me know if you have any other questions about how we arrived at those values. As for what happened to , I'm not quite sure what you're asking there. Philip Gwinnell I just want to check my logic is sound on this: Not too bad, huh?
We saw that this process doesn't look so bad, so let's go ahead and give it a go with an application. Suppose you and a few of your friends decide to open a math tutoring business. Taking time and travel expenses into account, your business's monthly profit can be modeled by the quadratic equation:. We see that this is the quadratic equation, and its graph is shown here:. Now, when it comes to the profit of your business, what is the number one question you want to know about it? It's what is the maximum amount of profit you can make, and how many tutoring packages do you have to sell to get that maximum profit?
Well, what did we just learn about the vertex of a quadratic equation? It's the maximum or minimum point of the parabola of the equation. We see that the x -coordinate of the vertex is This tells us that to maximize your profit, you must sell tutoring packages.
Now let's find out what that maximum profit is. Now, you just need to sell tutoring packages to attain that profit. Let's take a few moments to review the important information that we learned related to finding the vertex of a quadratic equation. In the end, we see that knowing how to find the vertex of a quadratic equation is extremely useful, because the vertex is the maximum or minimum value of the equation, and this has many uses in the world around us.
