Find the standard form of each equation by completing the square.
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-2x-20y-79 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-2x+1 = 20y+79+1
\n" ); document.write( "(x-1)^2 = 20y+80
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "(x-1)^2 = 20(y+4)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "This is the vertex form for the parabola.
