Rewrite the function f(x)=-2(x+2)^2+6 in the form f(x)=ax^2+bx+c

f(x) = -2x² - 8x - 2

General Formulas and Concepts:

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS Expand by FOIL (First Outside Inside Last)Standard Form: f(x) = ax² + bx + cVertex Form: f(x) = a(bx + c)² + d

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define function

Vertex Form: f(x) = -2(x + 2)² + 6

Step 2: Find Standard Form

Expand by FOILing:                         f(x) = -2(x² + 4x + 4) + 6Distribute -2:                                     f(x) = -2x² - 8x - 8 + 6Combine like terms (constants):     f(x) = -2x² - 8x - 2

1. 0.3 •4 is the same as 4 groups of 0.32. 7•0.8 is the same as 7 groups of 0.83. it increases by 0.5 every time, so 0.5x4 it increases by 0.9 every time, so 0.9x5. 0.9•12=10.86. 0.47•5=2.35i can finish the next ones in a separate post
