Which parabola?


y=-x^2

Equation of the parabola

y - y1 = 4p(x - x1)

The Vertex of the parabola given is (0, 0) because it does not have the values of x1 and y1.

Then Vertex = (0,0)

-Look for two values of y to the left and two points to the right.

You can choose the points that you which

x y

-3 y = -(-3)^2 = -9

-1 y = -(-1)^2 = -1

0 y = -(0)^2 = 0

1 y = -(1)^2 = -1

3 y = -(3)^2 = -9
