Does a sideways parabola represent a function?
No, it does not. You can tell if something is a function or not by using the vertical line test. If there is more than one point at any vertical line, it is not a function.
Is a parabola a function?
Y = X2 ===== The graph of this parabola is crossed only at a point and once by a vertical line, so it is a function. Passes the vertical line test.
What is the x coordinate of the vertex parabola defined by the following function 3x plus x plus 7x plus 4?
The given equation is not that of a parabola.
How do you tell if a quadratic function is minimum value or a maximum vale?
Standard notation for a quadratic function: y= ax2 + bx + c which forms a parabola, a is positive , minimum value (parabola opens upwards on an x-y graph) a is negative, maximum value (parabola opens downward) See related link.
What does the point h and k represent in the standard form of equation for a parabola?
It depends on where points h and k are, in which parabola. Since you have chosen not to share that information, there cannot be any sensible answer to this question.

What is the parabola fo y equals 4-16y-11?
The equation does not represent that of a parabola.
Is a parabola always a function?

How do you find the endpoints of a parabola when you have the function of the line?

What is the name of the graph of a quadratic function?
The parabola
Why is any parabola that opens upward or downward a function?
It is a function because for every point on the horizontal axis, the parabola identified one and only one point in the vertical direction.
What is a parabola that opens to the right called?
It is a square root mapping. This is not a function since it is a one-to-many mapping.
A function wahose graph is parabola?
Any equation where variable a = some multiple of variable b2 + constant will graph a parabola.
