Nope. You haven't given us a clue as to what you want to do with this quadratic function. Do you want to graph it? Find the y-intercept or the x-intercepts (if it has any)? Determine the number of real roots and/or their multiplicity? Find the vertex? Write an equation for the axis of symmetry? Find the focus and an equation for the directrix of the parabola?

Also, you have not provided, even though the instructions for posting questions CLEARLY require that you provide, information about what it is you don't understand, what you have tried so far, where in the process you are having difficulty, etc. Just saying you don't understand anything about it is exactly the same as saying that you haven't paid any attention in class for the entire semester -- not an admission that is conducive to convincing us to help you.

This is algebra.com. This is NOT the psychic hot line. We cannot guess what you want as a general rule, though we do get lucky from time to time.
