Question

Which of the following represents the vertex of the curve obtained by plotting $y=2x^2$?

• A. (0, 0)
• B. (1, -4)
• C. (0, 1)
• D. (1, 0)

Answer 1

The correct option is A (0, 0)

From the polynomial given $y=2x^2,a=2,b=0,c=0$.
The curve obtained by plotting $y=2x^2$ is a parabola and the vertex is $(\frac{-b}{2a},\frac{4ac-b^2}{4a})$. Here b and c=0, so vertex points are (0, 0).
