Answer:
a. Maximum
b. (-1, 4)
c. -3, 1
d. x = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
a. There is a maximum value of the function (highest point) because the parabola opens downward.
b. The vertex is the turning point--the point where the maximum is.
c. The roots (or "zeros") are the values of x where the curve intersects the x-axis
d. The axis of symmetry is a vertical line which passes through the vertex.
