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).

Answer:
Combination
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-38, 62, -100
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you meant a +24, not the -24.
The recursive formula is a_n = a_(n-2) - a_(n-1)
so. we try this 3 times after the -24 term
a_3 = -4 = 2 - 6 = a_1 - a_2
...
a_6 = a_4 - a_5 = 10 - (-14) = 24
a_7 = a_5 - a_6 = -14 - (24) = -38
a_8 = a_6 - a_7 = 24 - (-38) = 62
a_9 = a_7 - a_8 = -38 - 62 = -100
a_10 = a_8 - a_9 = 62 - (-100) = 162
