Answer:
The correct option is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a parabola is defined as
[tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] .... (1)
then the vertex of the parabola is
[tex]Vertex=(-\frac{b}{2a},f(-\frac{b}{2a}))[/tex]
The given function is
[tex]f(x)=-2x^2+4x-7[/tex] .... (2)
From (1) and (2) it is clear that
[tex]a=-2,b=4,c=7[/tex]
[tex]h=-\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
Substitute a=-2 and b=4 in the above equation.
[tex]h=-\frac{4}{2(-2)}=-\frac{4}{-4}=1[/tex]
The value of h is 1.
substitute h=1 in function (2).
[tex]f(1)=-2(1)^2+4(1)-7=-5[/tex]
The vertex of the function is (1,-5). Therefore the correct option is C.
