This math topic focuses on finding the x-coordinate of the vertex of quadratic equations. The skills practiced involve applying the formula for the vertex of a parabola derived from quadratic expressions. Each problem provides a quadratic equation, and students must calculate or choose the correct x-coordinate that corresponds to the vertex of the parabola represented by the equation. The format includes multiple-choice answers, allowing students to select the right x-coordinate from given options. This topic is a subset of a broader unit on the quadratic formula and discriminants.
