Question

9. Write the equation of the parabola in vertex form. Vertex: (-4, 6); Point: (-2, -2)

Answer 1

Answer: y = − 2 ( x + 4 ) 2 + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the parabola through   ( − 2 , − 2 )  with vertex  ( − 4 , 6 )  using the vertex form  y = a ( x − h ) 2 + k .

Standard Form:  y = − 2 x 2 − 16 x − 26

Vertex Form:  y = − 2 ( x + 4 ) 2 + 6
