Calculate square of x−6: Calculate the square of (x−6) to see what we get when we expand −2(x−6)2.(x−6)2=x2−12x+36
Multiply expanded form by −2: Multiply the expanded form by −2 to match the coefficient of the x2 term in the original equation.−2(x2−12x+36)=−2x2+24x−72
Compare constant terms: Compare the constant term of the expanded form with the original equation.Original constant term: −67Expanded constant term after multiplying by −2: −72
Find the difference: Find the difference between the original constant term and the expanded constant term.Difference: −67−(−72)=−67+72=5
Add difference to expanded form: Add the difference to the expanded form to get the equivalent form. p(x)=−2(x−6)2+5
