Answer 1

Hello again,

"katie deleted your answer to the question Hello,a=2, b=8, c=-1Indeed,y=f(x)=ax...

You've been warned"

Answer is a=2, b=8 and c=-1

Indeed:

y=f(x)=ax²+bx+c

Since (-2,-9) is the vertex,

y=k*(x+2)²-9

Or f(-1)=-7 ==> -7=k*(-1+2)²-9 ==> k=2

f(x)=2(x+2)²-9=2*(x²+4x+4)-9=2x²+8x+8-9

f(x)=2x²+8x-1

A proof: the picture is following.
