Let C : x^2-4x+2k be a parabola, with vertex m. By taking derivatives or otherwise discuss, as k varies, the coordinates of m and, accordingly, the number of solutions of the equation x^2-4x+2k=0. Illustrate your work with graphs

Write y=x 2 -4x+2k. And m:= (x m , y m ) for the coordinates of our vertex. We deduce that x m is exactly the value of x for which y'=2x-4=0, because m is a minimum point of y. By solving y'=0, we get x=2=x ...
