The function f (x) = x^2 - 12x + 5 written in vertex form is f (x) = (x-6) ^2 - 31. What are the coordinates of the vertex?

(6,31)

(-6,31)

(6,-31)

(-6, - 31)

(6, - 31)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a (x - h) ² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

f (x) = (x - 6) ² - 31 ← is in vertex form

with vertex = (6, - 31)

The coordinates for the vertex is (6,-31)
