Question:
Which part of a graph is meant by the term “vertex” when used in mathematics?
Answer:
Step 1
Vertex: (0,-4)
A quadratic’s vertex is the point at which its value is either the greatest or the least. A parabola has opened upwards, hence this point is its extremum.
Step 2
No symmetry exists above or below the equator (X).
The axis of symmetry is the x= function that crosses the vertex of the quadratic at (0, -4).
Step 3
Minimum:(0,-4)
Due to the parabola’s upward widening, the minimum will be reached. The lowest point is at the zenith.
Result
Vertex: (0,-4)
Axis of Symmetry: x=0x=0
Minimum: (0,-4)
