Question 249297: For the function of the parabola y=2(x-4)^2 +1 I am asked to remove the parantheses and rewrite this equation (I got 2x^2-63 which doesnt give me the same graph).
somehow this is supposed to give me the average value of the graph. I'm not really sure how to do either of these so some help please?

y=%282%28x-4%29%5E2+%2B1%29
y=%282%28x-4%29%28X-4%29%2B1%29
y=%282%28x%5E2-8X%2B16%29+%2B1%29
y=%282x%5E2-16X%2B32%29+%2B1%29
y=%282x%5E2-16X%2B32+%2B1%29
y=%282x%5E2-16X%2B33%29
