I assume you mean \"y=-2x%5E2-8x-5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Complete the square,
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-2%28x%5E2%2B4x%29-5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-2%28x%5E2%2B4x%2B4%29-5%2B2%284%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-2%28x%2B2%29%5E2-5%2B8\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-2%28x%2B2%29%5E2%2B3\"
\n" ); document.write( "(-2,3)
