Explanation:
"the equation of a parabola in "color(blue)"standard form"the equation of a parabola in standard form is.
•color(white)(x)y=ax^2+bx+c color(white)(x);a!=0∙xy=ax2+bx+cx;a≠0
"expand the factor "(8x-1)^2" using FOIL"expand the factor (8x−1)2 using FOIL
y=1/2(64x^2-16x+1)-3/2y=12(64x2−16x+1)−32
"distribute the bracket"distribute the bracket
y=32x^2-8x+1/2-3/2y=32x2−8x+12−32
color(white)(y)=32x^2-8x-1larrcolor(red)"in standard form"y=32x2−8x−1←in standard form
