Answer

The graph for the equation $y={{x}^{2}}+2x+1$.

Work Step by Step

$y={{x}^{2}}+2x+1$ (equation - 1) $\begin{align} & x=-\frac{b}{2a} \\ & =-\frac{2}{2\cdot \left( 1 \right)} \\ & =-1 \end{align}$ Now for the y value put $x=-1$ in equation (1). $\begin{align} & y={{\left( -1 \right)}^{2}}+2\cdot \left( -1 \right)+1 \\ & =1-2+1 \\ & =0 \end{align}$ The vertex is $\left( -1,0 \right)$. Now choose some value of x on both sides of the vertex and compute the corresponding y value. $\begin{matrix} x & y \\ 1 & 4 \\ 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \\ -2 & 1 \\ -3 & 4 \\ \end{matrix}$
