Vertex form of equation is y=2( x +2.25)^2- 15.125y=2(x+2.25)215.125

Explanation:

y=2 x^2+9 x-5y=2x2+9x5 or

y=2( x^2+4.5 x) -5 y=2(x2+4.5x)5 or

y=2( x^2+4.5 x +2.25^2)- 2*2.25^2 -5 y=2(x2+4.5x+2.252)22.2525 or

2*2.25^222.252 is added and subtracted to get square.

y=2( x +2.25)^2- 15.125y=2(x+2.25)215.125

Vertex is at -2.25,-15.1252.25,15.125

Vertex form of equation is y=2( x +2.25)^2- 15.125y=2(x+2.25)215.125 [Ans]
