Q. Re-write the quadratic function below in Standard Formy=6(x−1)2+2Answer: y=
Expand squared term: Expand the squared term.We need to expand the term (x−1)2 to rewrite the quadratic function in standard form.Using the identity (a−b)2=a2−2ab+b2, we get:(x−1)2=x2−2(x)(1)+12(x−1)2=x2−2x+1
Multiply expanded term: Multiply the expanded term by the coefficient.The expanded term x2−2x+1 needs to be multiplied by the coefficient 6.y=6(x2−2x+1)Distribute the 6 to each term inside the parentheses:y=6x2−12x+6
Add constant term: Add the constant term to the expression.The constant term outside the parentheses is +2, so we add it to the expression we obtained in Step 2.y=6x2−12x+6+2Combine like terms:y=6x2−12x+8
