if the eqn of the parabola is f(x) = (x-4)(x+2), we need to mult. this out to find the coordinates of the vertex.

then f(x) = x^2 + 2x - 4x - 8, and f(x) = x^2 - 2x - 8.

one way in which you can find the vertex is to calculate x = -b / (2a).   here, that comes to

        )

x = = 1.   f(1) = 1^2 - 2(1) - 8 = - 9.   vertex is at (1, -9).

        2(1) 

find another point on the curve:   let x=0, for which y=-8.   then (0, -8) is on the curve.   plot the vertex and this point and draw a smooth parabola thru both.

no, the equation would be invalid since they are both not equal.

step-by-step explanation:

here you got

4y-6+4y 2-9

first, you would simplify the equation on the form.

4y-6+4y 2-9

then, move all the terms that contains a y to the left and all the other terms to the right.

+4y-4y+-9-6

finally, you will simplify the left and the right side of the equation.

y=-3
