y = x^2 + 4x + 7 Find the turning point of the equation by completing the square.

Should start completing the square by figuring out what the square will be ( (x + 2)2 )Figure out what should be added/taken away from the square to complete it by multiplying out ( (x + 2)2 + 3 )Correctly identify the point that the turning occurs from this ( (-2,3) )
