One possible equation for this quadratic would be 

y=(x-4)²-1.  This is vertex form:  y=a(x-h)²+k, where (h, k) is the vertex.

However, this is not the only possible equation.  There could be multiple values for a, in front of the parentheses, that we don't know about from the information we are given.

We can also write this equation in standard form (y=ax²+bx+c).  First write the squared binomial as the product of two binomials:
y=(x-4)(x-4)-1

Multiply the binomials:
y=x*x-4*x-4*x-4(-4)-1
 = x²-4x-4x--16-1
 = x²-8x+16-1
 = x²-8x+15

Again, this would change depending on what the value of a is in the functoin.

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-5, -1) and is parallel to the line y=4x-6?
mr_godi [17]
Hello : 
<span>the equation all lines passes through (-5, -1) is :
y - (-1) = m(x -(-5))   m the slope
if this line parallal </span><span>to the line y=4x-6 so : m= 4  (same slope )
</span><span>the equation of the line that passes through (-5, -1) and is parallel to the line y=4x-6:    is  : 
</span> y+1 =4(x+5)
y = 4x +19
