Answer :

Answer:

(2,  5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a quadratic in standard form : y = ax² + bx + c : a ≠ 0

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

[tex]x_{vertex}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

y = 3x² - 12x + 17 ← is in standard form

with a = 3 and b = - 12, thus

[tex]x_{vertex}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{-12}{6}[/tex] = 2

Substitute x = 2 into the function for corresponding value of y

y = 3(2)² - 12(2) + 17 = 12 - 24 + 17 = 5

vertex = (2, 5 )
