Answer:
The vertex (h,k) is (-4,-7).
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you are looking for the vertex
.
The vertex form of a quadratic is
where the vertex is (h,k) and a tells us if the parabola is open down (if a<0) or up (if a>0). a also tells us if it is stretched or compressed.
Anyways if you compare
to
, you should see that
.
So the vertex (h,k) is (-4,-7).
