Rewriting from Vertex (Graphing) Form to Standard form: Follow the Order of Operations PEMDAS and combine like terms. 1) Expand squared binomial: 2) Distribute any multiplication: 3) Combine like terms: y=2(x-3)+1 Rewriting from Standard Form to Vertex (Graphing) Form: 1) Add/subtract constant away to the side of the = with y: y = x-4x-3 2) Complete the square on the side of the = with x. Be sure to add the "c" to BOTH sides of = : 3) Move the "c" on the side with the y back to the side with the x:
