the equation of a parabola is: y = a(x-h)^2 + k *h and k are the x and y intercepts of the vertex respectively * x and y are the coordinates of a known point the curve passes though * solve for a, then plug that a value back into the equation of the parabola with out the coordinates of the known point so the equation of the curve with the vertex at (0,3) passing through the point (9,0) would be.. 0 = a (9-0)^2 + 3 = 0 = a (81) + 3 = -3/81 = a so the equation for the curve would be y = -(3/81)x^2 + 3

How do you create an equation for a parabola?
An equation for a parabola always has some type of irregular variable, usually a squared variable or higher.
What is the equation of the directrix of the parabola?
The answer depends on the form in which the equation of the parabola is given. For y^2 = 4ax the directrix is x = -2a.
What is the parabola fo y equals 4-16y-11?

The equation y -3x2 describes a parabola. Which way does the parabola open?
The given terms can't be an equation without an equality sign but a negative parabola opens down wards whereas a positive parabola opens up wards.
What is the parabola fo y equals 4-16y-11?
The equation does not represent that of a parabola.
What direction does the parabola open?
If the equation of the parabola isy = ax^2 + bx + c, then it opens above when a>0 and opens below when a<0. [If a = 0 then the equation describes a straight line, and not a parabola!].
