Question

What does the graph of 8(x-2)=(y+4)2 look like?

Answer 1

• Horizontal parabola that opens right

=========================

Given function:

• 8(x - 2) = (y + 4)²

Rearrange it:

• (y + 4)² = 8(x - 2)

It is in the form of:

• (y - k)² = a(x - h), which represents a vertex form of a horizontal parabola

The graph of this function is a horizontal parabola that opens right.
