Did I do this right?
Rewrite f(x)=-3(x+2)^2+4 in standard form.
f(x)=-3(x+2)(x+2)+4
f(x)=-3(x^2+2x+2x+4)+4
f(x)=-3(x^2+4x+4)+4
f(x)=(3x^2-12x+-12)+4
f(x)=-3^2-12x+-12+4
f(x)=-3x^2+12x-8
Answer is f(x)=-3^2+12x-8
did I do this right or can you tell me where i went wrong?

I redid my work and got \[f(x)=-3x^2-12x-16\]
Nnesha (nnesha):
looks good
Nnesha (nnesha):
oh hwait no
Nnesha (nnesha):
how did you get -16?
like i said before there are just sign mistakes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
at the end i had -12+4 ?

yes right so -12+4 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so \[f(x)=-3x^2-12x-8\] is right?
Nnesha (nnesha):
|dw:1443299023462:dw|
yes right you forgot the negative at the end
so it's -12
