`Answer:
h(x) = -x^2/2 - 4x + 32
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of a quadratic equation is expresssed as
ax^2 + bx+c
Writing the given equation h(x)= -1/2 (x+4)^2 +10 in stabdard form will give;
h(x)= -1/2 (x+4)^2 +10
h(x)= -1/2 (x^2+8x+16)+40
h(x)= -x^2/2 - 4x - 8 + 40
h(x) = -x^2/2 - 4x + 32
Hence the equation in standard form is expressed as h(x) = -x^2/2 - 4x + 32
