What is the value of h when the function is converted to vertex form? note: vertex form is h(x)=a(x−h)^2+k . h(x)=x^2−8x+14 enter your answer in the box.

h = 4  

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a quadratic function is  

y = ax² + bx + c

Your function is

h(x) = x² − 8x + 14

a = 1; b = -8; c = 14

The vertex form of a parabola is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.

h = -b/(2a) and k = f(h)

Calculate h

h = -(-8)/(2×1)

  =      8/2

 =        4
