Question 2

Which function is equivalent to f(x) = -5(x + 4)2 + 8?
F(x)=-5x2-40x-32
F(x)=-5x2+8x+88
F(x)=-5x2-40-72
F(x)=-5x2+8x+24
( the 2 is squared)

Explanation:

-5(x + 4)² + 8 = -5(x² + 8x + 16) + 8 =

= -5x² - 40x - 80 + 8 = -5x² - 40x - 72

so, the third answer option must be correct, but you made a mistake there and forgot the "x" as factor of -40.
