Question

2.

Write the equation of the parabola that opens up, has a vertex
at (3,-2), and is congruent to y = 5x2 + 1
Answer in the vertex form y = a(x – h)2 + k.

Answer 1

With a vertex (h, k) at (0, 3) and given that a = -3, then the equation of this parabola in vertex form is as follows:

y = a(x - h)2 + k

y = -3(x - 0)2 + 3

y = -3x2 + 3
