PLEASE HELP!!!Explain why the graph of quadratic function could not contain both a minimum vertex and maximum vertex at the same time. Your explanation should be 3-4 sentences and include at least 6 of the following words. -parabola -U-shaped graph-vertex -minimum-maximum -Y-value of the vertex -X-value of the vertex-quadratic function

Question
Answer:
A parabola, a graph of a quadratic function, cannot have a maximum vertex and a minimum vertex at the same time because of the shape of the graph.Β  A parabola is a u-shaped graph.Β  The vertex of the parabola is the point where the u changes direction; if it was increasing, it starts to decrease, and if it was decreasing, it starts to increase.Β  Since a parabola only changes direction once, there will either be a minimum or a maximum, not both.
