Answer:
Vertex is (-4, -18)
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) =
Let (h, k) be the vertex
An easy way to find h is to use the formula h = -b/2a
In your case where f(x) = a = 2 and b = 8
So, h = -8/2(1) = -8/2 = -4
Substitue -4 in for x to find k
k = () + 8(-4) - 2
= (16) - 32 - 2
= 16 - 32 - 2
= -18
Vertex is (-4, -18)
Note: Another way to find the vertex is to complete the square, but this can really be difficult in some cases

Here we have the following rational function:
So the graph of this function is shown in the First Figure below. Let's define another function which is a parent function:
Whose graph is shown in the second figure below. So we can get the graph of f from the graph of g this way:
Step 1. Shift the graph 3 units to the left:
Step 2. Shift the graph 2 units down:
Finally, the features of the graph of f are:
The graph of this function comes from the parent function g and the transformations are:
- A shifting 3 units to the left
- A shifting 2 units down
There ya go! The answer is 8 rows. Added a picture to show you my work :)
