To explain the vertex of the parabola in detail:

1.Definition of Vertex: The vertex is the point on a parabola where it changes direction. For parabolas that open upwards, the vertex represents the minimum point on the graph.

2.Identifying the Lowest Point: Among these points, (-5, -8) is the lowest. This indicates that it is the vertex, as it has the smallest y-coordinate.

3.Behavior of the Parabola: The parabola decreases in y-valu...
