Grade 11 Quadratics Help!

Hello, im doing this math homework in quadratics and i cant figure out this one

Determine the equation (in standard form) of the parabola that has a y-intercept of 3, and that passes through the points (1,9) and (-2,15)

this is supposed to be an inquiry question, i guess its relatevely easy but i dont know which one is the vertex and how do i use the y-intercept to help me solve it?

you have three points ... (0,3) , (1,9) , and (-2,15)

using the form , you can set up three equations ...







solve the system for the coefficients of the terms in the quadratic, a, b, and c.
