Final answer:

The vertex of the quadratic function
f(x) = 9(x + 5)^2 - 6 is (-5, -6), which can be determined by comparing it to the standard vertex form
f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex of a quadratic function in vertex form, which is
f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k, is given by the point (h, k). The given function
f(x) = 9(x + 5)^2 - 6 is already in vertex form. By comparing this to the standard vertex form, we can see that h is -5 and k is -6. Therefore, the vertex of the function is (-5, -6), which does not match the provided coordinate (5, -9).
