vertices y=(2x-1)^2

vertices

Minimum (\frac{1}{2}, 0)

Solution steps

y = (2 x - 1)^{2}

y = (2 x - 1)^{2}

The parabola parameters are:

a = 4, m = \frac{1}{2}, n = \frac{1}{2}

x_{v} = \frac{m + n}{2}

x_{v} = \frac{( \frac{1}{2} ) + ( \frac{1}{2} )}{2}

Simplify

\frac{( \frac{1}{2} ) + ( \frac{1}{2} )}{2} : \frac{1}{2}

x_{v} = \frac{1}{2}

Plug in

x_{v} = \frac{1}{2}

to find the

y_{v}

value

y_{v} = 0

Therefore the parabola vertex is

(\frac{1}{2}, 0)

a < 0,

then the vertex is a maximum value

a > 0,

then the vertex is a minimum value

a = 4

Minimum (\frac{1}{2}, 0)
