The equation in standard form is y - k = a(x - h)², so the vertex takes the place of (h, k), and we get (2, -9).

Answer:

vertex is (2,-9)

Explanation:


y+9=-6(x-2)^2

The general vertex form of quadratic equation is


y=a(x-h)^2+k

Where (h,k) is the vertex

First we solve the given equation for y. then compare the given equation with the general equation.


y+9=-6(x-2)^2

Subtract 9 from both sides


y=-6(x-2)^2-9

The value of h=2 and the value of k = -9

So vertex is (2,-9)
