First is quadratic, second is pointslope i think, ask for a second opinion

anonymous · Answer

ok i will thanks so quadratic form? and pointslope form?

anonymous · Answer

is this right guys?

anonymous · Answer

Just ask it again, I'm probably wrong sorry

anonymous · Answer

Actually, http://cs.selu.edu/~rbyrd/math/equations/. The second is point slope for sure.

myininaya · Answer

Well that second equation is not even a line.
The first form is general form of a quadratic. 
That second is not quite in the vertex form. 

General form for a quadratic y=ax^2+bx+c
Vertex form for a quadratic y=a(x-h)^2+k

got it
  first one is stranded  form
the 
 other is vertex form

***[isuru]*** · Answer

"stranded" should be corrected as "standard" in ma answer///

you were right ISURU
