Andy completes the square for the equation x2 + 6x - 8 = 0. Which of the following equations reveals the vertex of the parabola?
Stolb23 [73]
If the equation x^2+6x-8 has undergo completing the square, the answer would be:
x^2+6x-8

x^2+6x+9-8-9
**In this example, since 6x is the middle term, what comes to my mind is the polynomial (x+3) because 2ab results into 6x. [from the special products lesson (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 ] 
(x+3)^2 -17 = 0
So if the equation is equal to y, then this equation's
y+17=(x+3)^2
The vertex would be on the point (-3, -17)
