Vertex form of equation is y = -25 (x-0.16)^2-12.36

Explanation:

y = -25 x^2+8 x -13 or

y = -25 (x^2-8/25 x) -13 or

y = -25 {x^2-8/25 x + (4/25)^2}+25 *16/625 -13 or

y = -25 (x-4/25)^2+16/25 -13 or

y = -25 (x-4/25)^2-309/25 or

y = -25 (x-0.16)^2-12.36 :. Vertex is at

(0.16 , -12.36) and vertex form of equation is

y = -25 (x-0.16)^2-12.36 [Ans]
