How to convert from standard form to vertex form when a is not 1?
Excuse me, could you elaborate on the process of converting a quadratic equation from its standard form to vertex form, specifically when the coefficient of the squared term (denoted as 'a') is not equal to 1? I understand that in standard form, the equation is written as ax^2 + bx + c = 0, but how do we manipulate this to find the vertex and express it in the form y = a(x - h)^2 + k, where (h, k) represents the vertex of the parabola? I'm particularly interested in the steps involved when 'a' is not unity.

What is the formula for vertex standard form?
Could you please explain what the formula for vertex standard form is? I'm trying to understand how to use it in my financial and cryptocurrency analysis, but I'm having a bit of trouble grasping the concept. Could you break it down for me in a way that's easy to understand, and maybe provide an example or two to illustrate how it works? I'd really appreciate your help with this.
