Hey can you please help me posted picture of question

Answer 1

Since the vertex of the parabola is at (-4, -1) and the parabola opens right the general equation of the parabola can be written as:


`x=a(y+1)^(2)-4`

For y = 0,x = 2. Using these values in the above equation we get:


`2=a(0+1)^(2)-4 \\ \\ 6=a`

So, the equation of the parabola will be:


`x=6(y+1)^(2)-4`

Thus, the coefficient of squared term is 6.

So correct answer is option D
