To convert the quadratic from vertex form \( y = (x + 4)^2 - 5 \) to standard form, we need to expand the equation.
-
Start with the vertex form:
\[ y = (x + 4)^2 - 5 \] -
Expand \( (x + 4)^2 \):
\[ (x + 4)(x + 4) = x^2 + 4x + 4 \] -
Substitute the expansion back into the equation:
\[ y = x^2 + 4x + 4 - 5 \] -
Simplify the equation:
\[ y = x^2 + 4x - 1 \]
So, the standard form of the quadratic is:
\[ y = x^2 + 4x - 1 \]
