Find the vertex of the graph of the equation y = -2x^2 + 8x - 15 - 3x^2 - 14x + 25.
First, let's simplify the equation.
Combining all like terms and reeaaranging the left, we get the equation
y=−5x2−6x+10
Now, we know the x value of the vertex can be written in the form −b2a for quadratics in the form y=ax2+bx+c
Plugging in what we have, we get −610=−0.6
Subsituting this back to find y, we get y=11.8
Thus, our final answer is (−0.6,11.8)
Thanks! :)
