SP #1: Unit E Concept 1- Graphing a quadratic and identifying all key parts

In this studnet problem I made an example of my own quadratic in stand form turining it into parent graph form. I completed the sqaure to accomplish this so I can graph it easier. After I put the quadratic in parent graph form, I was able to find the vertex by getting the oppisite number in parenthesis and the numbr outside. I was alos able to find the y-intercept by plugging in zero into the standard form eqaution. Then i foind the axis of symmentry. Lastly I was able to solve for the x-intercepts by getting x by itself. The trickest part of this problem was completing the sqaure. When I try to complete the sqaure I sometimes forget the steps but other than that it was pretty simple. Solving was kind of tricky too but not that much.
