What else can I help you with?
What is maximum or minimum of a parabola depending on whether the parabola opens up or down?
Vertex
What do you call the highest or the lowest point of a parabola?
The highest point of a parabola is called the "maximum," while the lowest point is referred to as the "minimum." These points occur at the vertex of the parabola. If the parabola opens upwards, it has a minimum point, and if it opens downwards, it has a maximum point.
What is the relationship of a vertex to a parabola?
The vertex is either the minimum (very bottom) or maximum (very top) of a parabola.
What is the extreme point of the parabola?
It is either a maximum or minimum value depending on its downwards shape or its upwards shape
How can a quadratic function have both a maximum and a minimum point?
A quadratic function can only have either a maximum or a minimum point, not both. The shape of the graph, which is a parabola, determines this: if the parabola opens upwards (the coefficient of the (x^2) term is positive), it has a minimum point; if it opens downwards (the coefficient is negative), it has a maximum point. Therefore, a quadratic function cannot exhibit both extreme values simultaneously.
What do you call the maximum or the minimum of a parabola?
A parabola's maximum or minimum is its vertex.
The maximum or minimum of a parabola depending on whether the parabola opens up or down?
A parabola opening up has a minimum, while a parabola opening down has a maximum.
Where is the point on the parabola for the maximum area?
The point on the parabola where the maximum area occurs is at the vertex of the parabola. This is because the vertex represents the maximum or minimum point of a parabolic function.
What is maximum or minimum of a parabola depending on whether the parabola opens up or down?
Vertex
How do you know if a parabola has a minimum or maximum value?
When you look at the parabola if it opens downwards then the parabola has a maximum value (because it is the highest point on the graph) if it opens upward then the parabola has a minimum value (because it's the lowest possible point on the graph)
What is the extreme point called on a parabola?
The vertex, or maximum, or minimum.
What do you call the highest or the lowest point of a parabola?
The highest point of a parabola is called the "maximum," while the lowest point is referred to as the "minimum." These points occur at the vertex of the parabola. If the parabola opens upwards, it has a minimum point, and if it opens downwards, it has a maximum point.
What is the relationship of a vertex to a parabola?
The vertex is either the minimum (very bottom) or maximum (very top) of a parabola.
Parts of a parabola?
There's the vertex (turning point), axis of symmetry, the roots, the maximum or minimum, and of course the parabola which is the curve.
What is another name for the maximum or minimum point of a quadratic graph?
Apex.
How do you tell if a quadratic function is minimum value or a maximum vale?
Standard notation for a quadratic function: y= ax2 + bx + c which forms a parabola, a is positive , minimum value (parabola opens upwards on an x-y graph) a is negative, maximum value (parabola opens downward) See related link.
What is the vertex for the parabola y equals x squared plus 4x plus 5?
The vertex of a parabola is the minimum or maximum value of the parabola. To find the maximum/minimum of a parabola complete the square: x² + 4x + 5 = x² + 4x + 4 - 4 + 5 = (x² + 4x + 4) + (-4 + 5) = (x + 2)² + 1 As (x + 2)² is greater than or equal to 0, the minimum value (vertex) occurs when this is zero, ie (x + 2)² = 0 → x + 2 = 0 → x = -2 As (x + 2)² = 0, the minimum value is 0 + 1 = 1. Thus the vertex of the parabola is at (-2, 1).
