Answer

\(\boxed{f(x)=2x^{2}+8x+3}\) is the final answer.

Steps

Step 1 :Given the function \(f(x)=2(x+2)^{2}-5\).

Step 2 :We need to rewrite it in the form \(f(x)=a x^{2}+b x+c\).

Step 3 :First, expand the expression \((x+2)^2\) to get \(x^2 + 4x + 4\).

Step 4 :Then, multiply this by 2 to get \(2x^2 + 8x + 8\).

Step 5 :Finally, subtract 5 from this to get \(2x^2 + 8x + 3\).

Step 6 :So, the function \(f(x)=2(x+2)^{2}-5\) can be rewritten in the form \(f(x)=a x^{2}+b x+c\) as \(f(x)=2x^{2}+8x+3\).

Step 7 :\(\boxed{f(x)=2x^{2}+8x+3}\) is the final answer.
