Answer:
Explanation:
Y= -2(x - 3)^2 + 1 can be seen as the equation of a parabola with vertex at (3, 1) and which opens down.
Y= -2(x - 3)^2 + 1 could also be expanded, obtaining a formula for the same parabola but in different format:
y = -2(x^2 - 6x + 9) + 1, or
y = -2x^2 + 12x -18 + 1, or y = -2x^2 + 12x - 17
