Question

Write the formula for

the function whose
parabola is narrow,
opens downward, has a
y-intercept of (0,-3.14),
and has NO x-intercepts.

Answer 1

Equation of the parabola x² = -12.56 y

Explanation:

Explanation:-

Given Y- intercept ( 0, -3.14)

Given Focus is ( 0 , -a) = ( 0, -3.14)

So a = 3.14 center C(0,0)

The graph of the parabola is downwards and the axis of the parabola is Y-axis.

Equation of the standard parabola x² = -4 a y

x² = -4 (3.14) y

x² = - 12.56 y

Conclusion:-

Equation of the parabola x² = -12.56 y
