<span>The general equation of a quadratic is expressed as y = ax^2+bx+c. To
convert the general equation to vertex form, we need to obtain this form:
(y- k)= a(x - h)^2
This could be done by using completing the square method.
</span><span>y = –3x^2 – 12x – 2
</span><span>y + 2 = –3(x^2 + 4x)
</span>y + 2 -12 <span>= –3(x^2 + 4x + 4)
</span>y - 10 = -3(x+2)^2
Therefore, the answer is the first option.
Answer:Second Step
Step-by-step explanation:
On the right side in step two you added -3b-15b, and ended up with -12b. This is incorrect. -3b-15b is actually -18b
