Question

Which of the equations below could be the equation of this parabola?

Answer 1

y = 3x^2

Explanation:

it was right for me

Answer 2

A vertical parabola is: y = a(x-h)² + k
where (h,k) is the vertex and "a" is the vertical stretch/shrink.
A negative sign in front of the "a" represents a reflection over the x-axis.

y = a(x-0)² + 0
y = a(x)²
Answer: B (y = 3x²)
