Here are the solutions to the problems.

: If the minimum of x2+4x+Kx^2 + 4x + K is −10-10, find the value of KK.

  1. Identify the coefficients of the quadratic equation ax2+bx+cax^2 + bx + c.

    For x2+4x+Kx^2 + 4x + K, we have a=1a=1, b=4b=4, and c=Kc=K.

  2. Use the formula for the minimum value of a quadratic, which is 4ac−b24a\frac{4ac - b^2}{4a}.

    We are given that the minimum value is −10-10.

    −10=4(1)(K)−(4)24(1)-10 = \frac{4(1)(K) - (4)^2}{4(1)}
  3. Solve the equation for KK.

    −10=4K−164-10 = \frac{4K - 16}{4}

    Multiply both sides by 4:

    −40=4K−16-40 = 4K - 16

    Add 16 to both sides:

    −40+16=4K-40 + 16 = 4K −24=4K-24 = 4K

    Divide by 4:

    K=−244K = \frac{-24}{4} K=−6K = -6

    The value of KK is −6\boxed{-6}.

    : Express 4x2−3x−14x^2 - 3x - 1 in the form a(x+b)2+ca(x+b)^2 + c where aa, bb and cc are constant. Hence find the coordinate of the turning point.

  4. Factor out the coefficient of x2x^2 from the terms involving xx.

    y=4x2−3x−1y = 4x^2 - 3x - 1 y=4(x2−34x)−1y = 4\left(x^2 - \frac{3}{4}x\right) - 1
  5. Complete the square inside the parenthesis.

    Take half of the coefficient of xx (−34\frac{-3}{4}), square it, and add and subtract it.
    Half of −34\frac{-3}{4} is −38\frac{-3}{8}. Squaring it gives (−38)2=964\left(\frac{-3}{8}\right)^2 = \frac{9}{64}.

    y=4(x2−34x+964−964)−1y = 4\left(x^2 - \frac{3}{4}x + \frac{9}{64} - \frac{9}{64}\right) - 1
  6. Group the perfect square trinomial and distribute the 4.

    y=4((x−38)2−964)−1y = 4\left(\left(x - \frac{3}{8}\right)^2 - \frac{9}{64}\right) - 1 y=4(x−38)2−4(964)−1y = 4\left(x - \frac{3}{8}\right)^2 - 4\left(\frac{9}{64}\right) - 1 y=4(x−38)2−916−1y = 4\left(x - \frac{3}{8}\right)^2 - \frac{9}{16} - 1
  7. Combine the constant terms.

    y=4(x−38)2−916−1616y = 4\left(x - \frac{3}{8}\right)^2 - \frac{9}{16} - \frac{16}{16} y=4(x−38)2−2516y = 4\left(x - \frac{3}{8}\right)^2 - \frac{25}{16}

    The expression in the form a(x+b)2+ca(x+b)^2 + c is 4(x−38)2−2516\boxed{4\left(x - \frac{3}{8}\right)^2 - \frac{25}{16}}.

  8. Find the coordinate of the turning point.

    For a quadratic in the form a(x+b)2+ca(x+b)^2 + c, the turning point is at (−b,c)(-b, c).
    From our expression, b=−38b = -\frac{3}{8} and c=−2516c = -\frac{25}{16}.
    So, −b=−(−38)=38-b = -(-\frac{3}{8}) = \frac{3}{8}.
    The coordinate of the turning point is (38,−2516)\boxed{\left(\frac{3}{8}, -\frac{25}{16}\right)}.

    : Express 8+2x−x28 + 2x - x^2 in the form a−(x+b)2a - (x+b)^2 where aa and bb are constant. Hence find the maximum and the exact value of xx where it occurs.

  9. Rearrange the quadratic into standard form and factor out −1-1.

    y=−x2+2x+8y = -x^2 + 2x + 8 y=−(x2−2x−8)y = -(x^2 - 2x - 8)
  10. Complete the square inside the parenthesis.

    Take half of the coefficient of xx (which is −2-2), square it, and add and subtract it.
    Half of −2-2 is −1-1. Squaring it gives (−1)2=1(-1)^2 = 1.

    y=−(x2−2x+1−1−8)y = -(x^2 - 2x + 1 - 1 - 8)
  11. Group the perfect square trinomial.

    y=−((x−1)2−9)y = -((x - 1)^2 - 9)
  12. Distribute the negative sign.

    y=−(x−1)2+9y = -(x - 1)^2 + 9

    Rearrange to the form a−(x+b)2a - (x+b)^2:

    y=9−(x−1)2y = 9 - (x - 1)^2

    The expression in the form a−(x+b)2a - (x+b)^2 is 9−(x−1)2\boxed{9 - (x - 1)^2}.

  13. Find the maximum value and the value of xx where it occurs.

    The term (x−1)2(x-1)^2 is always greater than or equal to 0. To maximize 9−(x−1)29 - (x-1)^2, we need to minimize (x−1)2(x-1)^2.
    The minimum value of (x−1)2(x-1)^2 is 0, which occurs when x−1=0x-1=0, so x=1x=1.
    When (x−1)2=0(x-1)^2 = 0, the expression becomes 9−0=99 - 0 = 9.
    The maximum value is 9\boxed{9}.
    The exact value of xx where it occurs is 1\boxed{1}.
