1.-- ans -Solution: Coefficient of x2 = 2 < 0 The parabola opens downward. The axis of symmetry of the graph is x + 4 = 0, i.e. x = 4. The coordinates of the vertex are (4 , 7). -- ans end -2-- ans -Solution: From the quadratic function y = (x 2)2 9, the vertex is (2 , 9). Substituting y = 0 into y = (x 2) 9, (x 2)2 9 = 0 (x 2)2 32 = 0 (x 2 + 3)(x 2 3) = 0 (x 1)(x 5) = 0

x = 1 or x = 5 Substituting x = 0 into y = (x 2)2 9, y = (0 2)2 9 =49 = 5 The x - intercepts are 1 and 5. The y - intercept is 5. -- ans end -3.-- ans -Solution: (a) y = 2x2 40x + 6 = 2(x2 20x) + 6 = 2(x2 20x + 102 102) + 6 = 2(x2 20x + 102) 200 + 6 = 2(x 10)2 194 The vertex of the function is (10 , 194), the minimum value is 194. (b) y = 5x2 + 30x + 7 = 5(x2 6x) + 7 = 5(x2 6x + 32 32) + 7 = 5(x2 6x + 32) + 45 + 7 = 5(x 3)2 + 52
