The vertex form of the quadratic function f(x) = x² + 2x + 3 is given as follows:
f(x) = (x + 1)² + 2
<h3>What is the equation of a parabola given it’s vertex?</h3>
The equation of a quadratic function, of vertex (h,k), is given by:
y = a(x - h)² + k
In which a is the leading coefficient.
In this problem, the function is:
f(x) = x² + 2x + 3
Completing the squares, we find the equation in vertex form, as follows:
f(x) = (x + 1)² + 2
As (x + 1)² = x² + 2x + 1, hence 2 has to be added to find the equivalent function.
