Given the vertex (3,-2) passing through ( 2,-5) write in +y=A%28x-h%29%5E2%2Bk+ form.
vertex is given by h,k ......so h=3,k=-2
since it passes through 2,-5,this when substituted should give us value of A
+y=A%28x-h%29%5E2%2Bk+ =+y=A%28x-3%29%5E2-2+
+-5=A%282-3%29%5E2-2+
-5=A-2.....or.....A=-5+2=-3..hence eqn. is
+y=%28-3%29%2A%28x-3%29%5E2-2+
