Question

Y = -X² -2x +3
What does y equal to?

Answer 1

y= -1(x-1)(x+3)

Explanation:

The way you can solve this is by factoring and using quadratics

First, you factor out the -1 in the x term

Then, you rewrite the equation into

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

After that you factor as normal into y= -1(x-1)(x+3)
