The functions f(x) = (x + 1) ^ 2 - 2 and g(x) = - (x - 2) ^ 2 + 1 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. the vertex for each function a minimum or a maximum? Explain your reasoning for each function. (10 points)

answerthe vertex form

step-by-step explanation:

correct answer is option b.

step-by-step explanation:

the true statement about geometric figure is option b that is one line can be drawn through all three points.

if three points are on the same plane, they can be connected by a line.

, and

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

, and for

it would open into a square depending on the type of envelope i’m not sure about the second part
