Answer:
1/36
Step-by-step explanation:
When the coefficient is 1, the function has zeros at -3 and -5, one horizontal unit from the vertex. You want to move the zero to (2, 0), which is 6 units from the vertex. To achieve a horizontal stretch by a factor of 6, the value of x in the function must be replaced by x/6. That would make the coefficient of x^2 be (1/6)^2 = 1/36.
The coefficient of the squared term is 1/36.
