To find: Whether the graph of the given quadratic function has minimum or maximum point.
Answer to Problem 17OE
The graph of the given quadratic function has minimum point.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The given function is,
Concept used:
For the
If the graph opens in upward direction, then it has minimum point and if open in downward direction then it has maximum point.
The given function is,
The leading coefficient of the equation is
For the quadratic equation, if the leading coefficient that is coefficient of
If the graph opens in upward direction, then it has minimum point and if open in downward direction then it has maximum point.
Hence, the graph of the given quadratic function has minimum point.
