nice, already in vertex form
y=a(x-h)^2+k
(h,k) is vertex

therfor since (-3,6) is vertex
we are looking for something like
y=a(x-(-3))^2+6 simplified to
y=a(x+3)^2+6


A is ansre

So,

The vertex form of a parabola is:

[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]

and the vertex is at (h,k).

Thus, the equation will have to look something like this:

[tex]y=a(x+3)^2+6[/tex]

Only option A matches these criteria, so is must be the correct option.
