Problem

Find $\mathrm{b}$ and $\mathrm{c}$ so that $y=14 x^{2}+b x+c$ has vertex $(-1,4)$ \[ b= \] \[ c= \]

Solution

Step 1 :The vertex form of a parabola is given by \(y=a(x-h)^{2}+k\) where \((h,k)\) is the vertex of the parabola.

Step 2 :In this case, we know that \(a=14\), \(h=-1\) and \(k=4\).

Step 3 :We can expand this equation to get it in the form \(y=ax^{2}+bx+c\).

Step 4 :Doing so, we get \(y = 14*(x + 1)^{2} + 4\).

Step 5 :Expanding this equation, we get \(y = 14*x^{2} + 28*x + 18\).

Step 6 :Comparing coefficients, we find that \(b = 28\) and \(c = 18\).

Step 7 :Final Answer: The coefficients \(b\) and \(c\) are \(\boxed{28}\) and \(\boxed{18}\) respectively.
