There are 
ways of picking 2 of the 10 available positions for a 0. 8 positions remain.
There are 
ways of picking 3 of the 8 available positions for a 1. 5 positions remain, but we're filling all of them with 2s, and there's 
way of doing that.
So we have
The last expression has a more compact form in terms of the so-called multinomial coefficient,
Answer: D
Explanation:
Since we don't know the y-value of the vertex, let's do this an easy way: plugging in.
Let's use the y intercept since that would be the easiest. Since x=0, the terms with x cancel, and you will get a leading result of -5
A) results in 2, so eliminate it
B) results in -2, so eliminate it
C) results in 5, so eliminate it
D) results in -5, so keep it
Since D was the only one that worked, that is our correct answer.
