Y= -(x+3)^2 -5
What is the leading coefficient?
How do you find the vertex?

To find the leading coefficient, first expand the function:

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the highest-order term, which, in this case, would be the -1 from -x².

To find the vertex: see image below

Vertex = (-3, -5)

Y≥6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solid line means ___ or equal to, and since it goes from 6 down, it is less than, so less than or equal to.
