Answer: y = (x +2)² + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = a(x - h)² + k where "a" is the leading coefficient and (h, k) is the vertex
Since we don't know "a", we need to plug in the point (x, y) and the vertex (h, k) to solve for "a": (x, y) = (0, 9) and (h, k) = (-2, 5)
y = a(x - h)² + k
9 = a(0 - (-2))² + 5
9 = a(0 + 2)² + 5
9 = a(2)² + 5
-5 -5
4 = a(4)
÷4 ÷4
1 = a
Next, plug in "a" and the vertex (h, k):
y = a(x - h)² + k
y = 1(x +2)² + 5
y = (x +2)² + 5
