Answer:

  y = 9x^2 -8x +9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation has derivative ...

  y' = 2ax +b

The requirements on slope give rise to two equations:

  2a(1) +b = 10

  2a(-1) +b = -26

Adding these equations together gives ...

  2b = -16   ⇒   b = -8

Then we have ...

  2a -8 = 10

  a = (10 +8)/2 = 9

__

The given point lets us find the constant term c.

  y = 9x^2 -8x +c

  c = y -(9x -8)x = 29 -(9(2) -8)(2) = 29 -20 = 9

The equation of the parabola is ...

  y = 9x^2 -8x +9

Why is -a² is always negative (a ≠ 0) and why is (-a)² is always positive?
hjlf
-a^2=(-1)\cdot a\cdot a

Regardless of the sign of a, we have a\cdot a=a^2\ge0 (never negative). But multiplying by -1 makes it negative.

On the other hand,

(-a)^2=((-1)\cdot a)^2=(-1)^2\cdot a^2=1\cdot a^2=a^2

which can never be negative for real a.
