y=3x^2-6x-7y=3x26x7

Explanation:

Given:

y+10=3(x-1)^2y+10=3(x1)2

Subtract 1010 from both sides.

y=3(x-1)^2-10y=3(x1)210

Rewrite (x-1)^2(x1)2 as (x-1)(x-1)(x1)(x1).

y=3(x-1)(x-1)-10y=3(x1)(x1)10

FOIL (x-1)(x-1)(x1)(x1).

y=3(x^2-2x+1)-10y=3(x22x+1)10

Distribute the 33 to the trinomial.

y=3x^2-6x+3-10y=3x26x+310

Simplify.

y=3x^2-6x-7y=3x26x7
