Answer:

  a  (3,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that "completes the square" is the square of half the x-coefficient, (-6/2)^2 = 9. Rearranging the given function to include the square trinomial, we have ...

  f(x) = x^2 -6x +9 -1 . . . . . . . here, we have 8 = 9 - 1

  f(x) = (x -3)^2 -1 . . . . . . . . . . vertex form

Comparing this to the generic vertex form ...

  f(x) = (x -h)^2 +k . . . . . . . vertex at (h, k)

we see that h=3 and k=-1.

The vertex is (h, k) = (3, -1).
