Answer:

(-1,-4)

Explanation:

The equation of a parabola os written as: ax^2+bx+c

This parabola's equation is x^2+2x-3

● a= 1

● b= 2

● c = -3

The coordinates of the parabola are: ( (-b/2a) ; f(-b/2a) )

● -b/2a = -2/2 = -1

● f(-b/2a) = (-1)^2+2×(-1)-3=1-2-3= -4

So the vertex coordinates are (-1,-4)
