The functions f(x) = (x + 1)^2 − 2 and g(x) = −(x − 2)^2 + 1 have been rewritten using the completing-the-square method. Apply your knowledge of functions in vertex form to determine if the vertex for each function is a minimum or a maximum and explain your reasoning.

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:
