Sure thing ^_^ it's the same as the one I mentioned before :) \( y = a(x - h)^2 + k \)

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

where \( (h, k) \) is the vertex

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

then you can *temporarily* plug in the "given point" as (x, y) to find "a" :)

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

if you get stuck on some part of it, just ask ^_^

Aaah I see, thank you once again! (:

Ok I plugged in the equation, just checking if I did it right but would the answer be D?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

hmmm make sure when you first plugged in the vertex, you got: \( y= a(x+4)^2+3\) ^ plus 4 ?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

but no, I don't think it's D try again? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok got it now, so it would be B?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yeah B is right ^_^"
