Vertex is at (3,-11) (3,11)

Explanation:

y= (x-2)^2-2 x-6 or y= x^2-4 x +4-2 x-6y=(x2)22x6ory=x24x+42x6 or

y= x^2-6 x -2 or y= (x^2-6 x +9)-9 -2 y=x26x2ory=(x26x+9)92 or

y= (x-3)^2-11 y=(x3)211 . Comparing with vertex form of

equation f(x) = a(x-h)^2+k ; (h,k)f(x)=a(xh)2+k;(h,k) being vertex we find

here h=3 , k=-11 :. Vertex is at (3,-11)
