Find the vertex $\left ( x,y \right )$ for a parabola with equation

$\left ( 1,-2 \right )$

$\left ( 1,1 \right )$

$\left ( 1,2 \right )$

$\left ( 2,-1 \right )$

$\left ( 1,3 \right )$

For any parabola of the form , the -coordinate of its vertex is

$x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

So here, we have

$x=\frac{-(-6))}{2(3)}$

We plug this back into the original equation to find :
