Equation :
This parabola is facing downwards and highest point of the parabola is it's vertex.
Highest point is (-2,2)
so the vertex is (-2,2)
The graph is passing through (-1,0)
Equation in vertex form is
Substitute back in Equation
the graph has two x intercepts -1 and -3
that means (x+1) and (x+3) are the factors
multiply factors to get the equation in standard form
-2x^2-8x-6=0
8x + 6 - 2x = 34x
Simplify 8x +6 - 2x to 6x + 6:
6x + 6 = 34x
Subtract 6x from both sides:
6 = 34x- 6x
Simplify 34x - 6x to 28x:
6 = 28x
Divide both sides by 28:
= x
Simplify to 
:
= x
Now switch sides and the answer is:
x =

Simplify 8x +6 - 2x to 6x + 6:
6x + 6 = 34x
Subtract 6x from both sides:
6 = 34x- 6x
Simplify 34x - 6x to 28x:
6 = 28x
Divide both sides by 28:
Simplify
Now switch sides and the answer is:
x =
