Question

Explain why this question is a quadratic.

`y=3 (x+1)^(2)`

Answer 1

y = 3(x + 1)²
y = 3(x² + 2x + 1)
y = 2(x² +2x + 1)
y = 2x² + 4x + 2

Here, You can compare it with principle Quadratic equation,
ax² + bx + c = 0
So, as the pattern matches, it is a "Quadratic Equation"

Hope this helps!
