Q. Find the coordinates of the vertex of y=3(x−1)2+4
Identify Vertex Form: The vertex form of a parabola's equation is y=a(x−h)2+k, where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola. In the given equation y=3(x−1)2+4, we can see that it is already in vertex form.
Find h and k: Identify the values of h and k from the equation. The value of h is the x-coordinate of the vertex, and the value of k is the y-coordinate of the vertex. In the given equation, h=1 and k=4.
Calculate Vertex Coordinates: The coordinates of the vertex are therefore (h,k)=(1,4).
