Answer:
third option down
Explanation:
the equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
• If a > 0 then graph opens up
• If a < 0 then graph opens down
y = - 2(x + 3)² - 1 ← is in vertex form
with vertex = (- 3, - 1 ) and a = - 2
thus graph has vertex at (- 3, - 1 ) and opens down
the graph fitting this description is third down
