If the equation [tex]x^2+6x-8[/tex] has undergo completing the square, the answer would be:
[tex]x^2+6x-8 [/tex]
[tex]x^2+6x+9-8-9[/tex]
**In this example, since 6x is the middle term, what comes to my mind is the polynomial (x+3) because 2ab results into 6x. [from the special products lesson [tex](a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2[/tex] ] 
[tex](x+3)^2 -17 = 0[/tex]
So if the equation is equal to y, then this equation's
[tex]y+17=(x+3)^2[/tex]
The vertex would be on the point (-3, -17)

Answer:

(h,k) in the cuadratic formula y= a(x-h)^2 + k

Step-by-step explanation:

If you complete square in a cuadratic formula the vertex of the parabola will be more visible. In the case of f(x)= [tex]x^{2}+6x-8[/tex] we complete square adding and substracting 9. So,

[tex]x^{2}+6x+9-9-8 = (x+3)^{2}-17[/tex]

So we have the cuadratic form of a parabola [tex]y= a(x-h)^{2} + k[/tex] where a=1, h= -3 and k= -17.

So, the vertex is (h,k)=(-3,-17).
