The general equation of parabola is :


\begin{gathered} y=a(x-h)^2+k \\ \text{where}(h,k)\text{ are the vertex of the curve} \end{gathered}

a > 0, that means the curve is upward

x intercept and y intercept at 4

x intercept at 4 meanse : x = 4

Coordinates are ( 4,0)

y intercept at 4 meanse y = 4

Coordinates are : (x,y) =(0,4)
