Question
Use the image to answer the question.

A parabola is graphed on a coordinate plane. The x-axis ranges from negative 14 to 1 in increments of 1. The y-axis ranges from negative 2 to 6 in increments of 1.

Answer 1

To identify the vertex of a parabola from a graph, it can typically be found at the highest or lowest point of the curve, depending on whether it opens upwards or downwards.

Since I do not have access to the actual image you're referring to, I advise you to look for the point on the graph where the parabola reaches its maximum height (if it opens downwards) or minimum height (if it opens upwards).

Check the coordinates of the potential vertex options you provided:

1. (−11,−1)
2. (−12,0)
3. (−10,0)

Whichever coordinate corresponds to the highest or lowest point of the parabola will be the correct answer. Please inspect the graph to find this point.
