47. in the parabola, = 3^2 + 12 + 11, the vertex isA.(2,1) b(-2,-1) c (2,-1) d (-2,1)e (3,11)

Answer :

The Solution.

The given parabola is

[tex]y=3x^2+12x+11[/tex]

Let the vertex of the given parabola be (h,k).

So,

[tex]\begin{gathered} h=-\frac{b}{2a} \\ \text{Where a=3,b=12,c=11} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Substituting these values, we get

[tex]h=-\frac{12}{2\times3}=-\frac{12}{6}=-2[/tex]

Now, substituting -2 for x in the given parabola, we get

[tex]\begin{gathered} k=3(-2)^2+12(-2)+11 \\ k=3(4)-24+11 \\ k=12-24+11 \\ k=-12+11=-1 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the vertex of the given parabola is (-2,-1)

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
