Suppose a parabola has a vertx (-1,8) and y-intercept 7
\n" ); document.write( "How do you find the function f whose graph is this parabola and express f in the form f(x)= \"ax%5E2%2Bbx%2Bc\"?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Vertex form: y-k = a(x-h)^2
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "h=-1,k=8, y=7 when x = 0
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "7-8 = a(0+1)^2
\n" ); document.write( "-1 = a
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "y-8 = -1(x+1)^2
\n" ); document.write( "y = -(x^2+2x+1)+8
\n" ); document.write( "f(x) = -x^2-2x+7
