Question

20 points will give brainliest

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is that the turning point, or vertex is: (4, 19)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x^2 + 8x + 3

Separate out the first two terms with parenthesis:

(x^2 + 8x) + 3

Add 16 to complete the square, in the parenthesis and to the constant:

(x^2 + 8x + 16) + 3 + 16

Reduce:

(x + 4)^2 + 19

This is in the form:

(x + p)^2 + q

The vertex is at: (4, 19)
