Answer:
y=(x-4)²-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Our x-intercepts are (2,0) and (6,0) so we can state them as expressions and expand:
(x-2)(x-6)=0 [Remember that (2,0) is the solution to x-2=0 just as (6,0) is the solution to x-6=0]
x²-8x+12=0 (Standard Form)
x²-8x+12+4=0+4 (Completing the square)
x²-8x+16=4
(x-4)²=4
(x-4)²-4=0
Therefore, our equation for the graph in vertex form is y=(x-4)²-4
