The quadratic function is .
For this function a = , so the graph opens down and the function has a maximum value.
The maximum value of the function is the y-coordinate of the vertex.
\The - coordinate of the vertex is
.
(Substitute the values a =
and b =
)
. \ \
The y-coordinate of the vertex by evaluating the function for =
.
