Answer 1

To identify the vertex on the graph, we need to know the specific graph you're referring to. However, if the equation of a parabola is in standard form \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\), the x-coordinate of the vertex can be found using the formula \(x = -\frac{b}{2a}\).

From the options you've provided:
1. \(x = -5\)
2. \( (5, 0) \)
3. \( (-5, 0) \)
4. \( (0, -5) \)

The vertex would likely be one of the coordinate pairs. If the vertex is specifically at \( (-5, 0) \), that means the parabola opens either upwards or downwards, and its vertex is located at that point.

Without the visual graph, I can't definitively choose the correct answer, but if you're looking for the vertex and you recognize that one of the options is \( (-5, 0) \), then that would be the vertex of the graph if it matches the parabola's vertex.

If you can provide more context or describe the graph, I can offer a more precise answer!
