Please indicate exponentiation using " ^ "   Thanks.

f(x)=x2+14x+40 => f(x)=x^2+14x+40

Next, complete the square:

f(x)=x^2+14x+ 49 - 49 +40 = (x+7)^2 - 9 

Write this in the form y = (x+7)^2 - 9  or y + 9 = (x+7)^2
Comparing this result to y = a(x-h)^2 + k, we see that h = -7 and k=-9

In vertex form, the equation is y + 9 = (x+7)^2 and the vertex is at (-7, -9).
