If the quadratic function y=kx2+8x+(k−1) has an axis of symmetry x=4, then the maximum value of the function is...
Given the quadratic function:
The axis of symmetry for a quadratic function ax2+bx+c is given by the formula x=−2ab. In this case, a=k and b=8.
Given the axis of symmetry x=4, then:
After finding the value of k, we substitute it back into the original function:
To find the maximum value, we substitute the axis of symmetry value x=4 into the function (since the optimum value is always at the axis of symmetry):
Thus, the maximum value of the function is 14.
