Answer:
The vertex is (6, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) =(х – 8)(х – 4)
First find the zeros
0 = (х – 8)(х – 4)
0 = x-8 0 =x-4
x=8 x=4
The zeros are x=8 and x=4
The vertex is 1/2 way between the zeros
(8+4)/2 = 12/2 =6
To find the y value, substitute 6 into the function
f(6) = (6-8) (6-4)
= -2 (2) = -4
The vertex is (6, -4)
