y= -4x² - 16x - 14
Take the coefficient of x² as the common factor
y = - 4(x² + 4x + 7/2)
Add (b/2)² to complete the square
y = - 4( x² + 4x + 2² - 2² + 7/2)
Complete the square
y = -4( (x + 2)² - 1/2)
Remove the bracket
y = -4(x + 2)² + 2
Answer: y = -4(x + 2)² + 2

Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex of a quadratic equation is the minimum or maximum point of the equation. Find that, and you have the vertex. <span>To </span>find the x-intercept<span> of a given linear equation, plug in 0 for 'y' and solve for '</span>x'. To find<span> the y-</span>intercept, plug 0 in for 'x<span>' and solve for 'y'.</span>
