Convert the equation to vertex form.
y = x2 – 8x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x² - 8x) + 10

Complete the square

 coefficient of the x term: -8

 divide it in half: -4

 square it: (-4)² = 4²

 use 4² to complete the square and keep the equation balanced:

y = (x²-8x + 4²) - 4² + 10

y = (x-4)² - 6

y = (x - 4)² - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

use the 'completing the square' method:

x² - 8x + 10 = 0

x² - 8x + 16 = -10 + 16

(x - 4)² = 6

y = (x - 4)² - 6
