vertices 4x^2+8x+4

vertices

Minimum (- 1, 0)

Solution steps

y = 4 x^{2} + 8 x + 4

The parabola parameters are:

a = 4, b = 8, c = 4

x_{v} = - \frac{b}{2 a}

x_{v} = - \frac{8}{2 \cdot 4}

Simplify

x_{v} = - 1

Plug in

x_{v} = - 1

to find the

y_{v}

value

y_{v} = 0

Therefore the parabola vertex is

(- 1, 0)

a < 0,

then the vertex is a maximum value

a > 0,

then the vertex is a minimum value

a = 4

Minimum (- 1, 0)
