Find the Vertex Form g(x)=40x+4x^2

$g (x) = 40 x + 4 x^{2}$

Step 1

Write $g (x) = 40 x + 4 x^{2}$ as an equation.

$y = 40 x + 4 x^{2}$

Step 2

Reorder $40 x$ and $4 x^{2}$ .

$y = 4 x^{2} + 40 x$

Step 3

Complete the square for $4 x^{2} + 40 x$ .

Use the form $a x^{2} + b x + c$ , to find the values of $a$ , $b$ , and $c$ .

$a = 4$

$b = 40$

$c = 0$

Consider the vertex form of a parabola.

$a {(x + d)}^{2} + e$

Find the value of $d$ using the formula $d = \frac{b}{2 a}$ .

Substitute the values of $a$ and $b$ into the formula $d = \frac{b}{2 a}$ .

$d = \frac{40}{2 \cdot 4}$

Simplify the right side.

Cancel the common factor of $40$ and $2$ .

Factor $2$ out of $40$ .

$d = \frac{2 \cdot 20}{2 \cdot 4}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $2 \cdot 4$ .

$d = \frac{2 \cdot 20}{2 (4)}$

Cancel the common factor.

$d = \frac{2 \cdot 20}{2 \cdot 4}$

Rewrite the expression.

$d = \frac{20}{4}$

Cancel the common factor of $20$ and $4$ .

Factor $4$ out of $20$ .

$d = \frac{4 \cdot 5}{4}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $4$ out of $4$ .

$d = \frac{4 \cdot 5}{4 (1)}$

Cancel the common factor.

$d = \frac{4 \cdot 5}{4 \cdot 1}$

Rewrite the expression.

$d = \frac{5}{1}$

Divide $5$ by $1$ .

$d = 5$

Find the value of $e$ using the formula $e = c - \frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$ .

Substitute the values of $c$ , $b$ and $a$ into the formula $e = c - \frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{40^{2}}{4 \cdot 4}$

Simplify the right side.

Simplify each term.

Raise $40$ to the power of $2$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{1600}{4 \cdot 4}$

Multiply $4$ by $4$ .

$e = 0 - \frac{1600}{16}$

Divide $1600$ by $16$ .

$e = 0 - 1 \cdot 100$

Multiply $- 1$ by $100$ .

$e = 0 - 100$

Subtract $100$ from $0$ .

$e = - 100$

Substitute the values of $a$ , $d$ , and $e$ into the vertex form $4 {(x + 5)}^{2} - 100$ .

$4 {(x + 5)}^{2} - 100$

Step 4

Set $y$ equal to the new right side.

$y = 4 {(x + 5)}^{2} - 100$
