Vertex = (.5, 1.75)
First, you must find your x-value, which is represented by h in the formula h=-b/2a. In this equation, A = 1, B = -1, C = 2, which gives you -1(-1)/2(1) = 1/2 = .5. Now that you know your x-value is .5, you can solve for y. Plug in your x-value accordingly: (.5)^2-.5+2 = 1.75. x = .5, y = 1.75, therefore, your vertex is (.5,1.75)
