Standard Form: ax² + bx + c = 0Vertex Form: f(x) = a(bx - c)² + dCompleting the Square

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Standard Form:   y = x² + 8x + 2

Step 2: Find Vertex Form

Complete the Square:                    y = (x² + 8x + 16) + 2 - 16Rewrite:                                           y = (x + 4)² - 14

And we have our answer!

Yes of course i will indeed you with your problem.
