Answer:
3rd option
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
Here (h, k ) = (- 1, - 25 ) , then
f(x) = (x - (- 1) )² - 25 , that is
= (x + 1)² - 25 ← expand using FOIL
= x² + 2x + 1 - 25
= x² + 2x - 24
