When Nick checked his work it did not match the standard form function. Analyze Nick’s work. What was his mistake?

A
In step 1, he did not put the function in standard form correctly.

In step 2, he should have also factored –7 from the constant term, 17.
C
In step 3, he did not subtract –7(9) to keep the function equivalent.
D
In step 4, he did not write the perfect square trinomial correctly as a binomial squared.
