2x^2-4x-6=0 in vertex form and in standard form?

x^2-2x=3
x^2-2x+1 = 4
(x-1)^2 = 4
(x-1)^2-4 = 0

Standard form (US):
.. x^2 -2x -3 = 0 . . . . descending powers, relatively prime coefficients, =0.

Vertex form (standard form UK):
.. (x -1)^2 -4 = 0 . . . . a(x-h)^2 +k for vertex (h, k). Here, a=1.

_____
.. (x +1)(x -3) = 0 . . . . factored form

2x^2-4x-6=0
General form: Y= 2*X^2-4*X-6
Standard form: Y = ( 2x² -4x +2) -2 -6 = 2(x -1)² -8
Transformational form: 0.5(Y +8) = (x -1)²
