Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of a vertex are (h, k). If our vertex is (-3, -5), then h = -3 and k = -5. The vertex form of a parabola is

[tex]y=(x-h)^2+k[/tex] so if we fill in our h and k values, the equation becomes

[tex]y=(x-(-3))^2+(-5)[/tex] and, simplified, is

[tex]y=(x+3)^2-5[/tex]

Choice B.
