Find the x-coordinate of a parabola's vertex.
Examples
- a=1, b=4 ⇒ -2
- a=2, b=-8 ⇒ 2
FAQ
What is a vertex?
It's the highest or lowest point of a parabola.
Do I need c?
No, the x-coordinate depends only on a and b.
What if a is zero?
a must be non-zero for a valid quadratic.
Can I find y too?
Use y = c - b²/(4a) once you know a, b, and c.
