A. y=-2(x+1)^2+8
\n" ); document.write( "- Find the coordinates of the vertex
\n" ); document.write( "vertex: (-1,8)
\n" ); document.write( "- Direction of opening
\n" ); document.write( "opens down because of (-) in front of 2.
\n" ); document.write( "- Identify if the graph is wider or narrower than normal
\n" ); document.write( "Skinny because 2 > 1
\n" ); document.write( "- Find the equation of the axis of symmetry
\n" ); document.write( "Axis of symmetry is x = -1
\n" ); document.write( "- Find the y-intercept
\n" ); document.write( "(0,6)
