Vertex is at (2.5,0.75) (2.5,0.75)

Explanation:

y=x-2+(x-3)^2 or y=x-2+x^2-6x+9y=x2+(x3)2ory=x2+x26x+9 or

y=x^2-5x+7 or y=(x^2-5x) +7y=x25x+7ory=(x25x)+7 or

y={x^2-5x +(5/2)^2}-25/4 +7y={x25x+(52)2}254+7 or

y=(x-2.5)^2+3/4 or y={x-2.5)^2+0.75 y=(x2.5)2+34ory={x2.5)2+0.75

Comparing with vertex form of equation

y = a(x-h)^2+k ; (h,k)y=a(xh)2+k;(h,k) being vertex we find

here h=2.5 , k=0.75 :. Vertex is at (2.5,0.75) .
