Express $$\(7-4 x-x^{2}\)$$ in the form $$\(p-(x+q)^{2}\)$$ where $$\(p\)$$ and $$\(q\)$$ are constants. (2) (b) Use your answer to part (a) to solve the equation $$\(7-4(y+3)-(y+3)^{2}=0\)$$ Give your solutions in the form $$\(e \pm \sqrt{f}\)$$ where $$\(e\)$$ and $$\(f\)$$ are integers. (3) The curve $$\(\mathbf{C}\)$$ has equation $$\(y=3-5(x+1)^{2}\)$$ The point $$\(A\)$$ is the maximum point on $$\(\mathbf{C}\)$$. (c) Write down the coordinates of $$\(A\)$$. (1)
