What is the vertex of y = (x-2) - 7

The vertex of this equation is (2, - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the vertex of this equation we start with the base form of the vertex form.

y = a (x - h) + k

With this equation (h, k) is the vertex. You can see that 2 lines up with h and - 7 lines up with k. This shows that (2, - 7) is the vertex.
