What is the point of which a parabola intersects the axis of symmetry called?

if it opens up then the point is called the minimum if it opens down its called the maximum


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 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!].


What is regular hours?

regular hours is usually when a store opens and closes


How much is a revelation model 3600 side by side 20 gauge worth?

I believe these are actually Stevens / Fox Model B guns in a cheap dept. store wrapper. They were sold by the old Western Auto chain of hardware stores under the Revelation brand name. They are decent guns, but not worth much. Value is completely dependent on condition I would say 300 bucks in very good-excellent condition. They were an inexpensive gun brand new. A good way to judge the amount of shooting yours has done is to look at the locking lever that opens the gun. If it is a little to the right that's a good sign, if the lever is centered, or worse the gun rattles when closed that's a bad thing. Double guns can loosen up, the lever is designed to take up the wear. Also your gun can be taken down with out tools. Just grab the forearm wood at the front and pull down sharply, it will come off. Hold the gun in both hands and open it, now you have two pieces! Makes it easy to store or pack, many double barrel guns have this feature. That said they are great shooters! A 3" Magnum load will get your attention, make sure that stock is up tight to your shoulder. It's a great little upland gun, lightweight, and a 3" chamber increases it's versatility. I've owned mine for many years, and will hand it down to my son. I've always been very fond of my cheap little off brand double gun. It was one of my first guns of a lifelong hobby / habit.

What is the equation of a parabola with a vertex at 0 0 and a focus at 0 6?

The standard equation for a Parabola with is vertex at the origin (0,0) is, x2 = 4cy if the parabola opens vertically upwards/downwards, or y2 = 4cx when the parabola opens sideways. As the focus is at (0,6) then the focus is vertically above the vertex and we have an upward opening parabola. Note that c is the distance from the vertex to the focus and in this case has a value of 6 (a positive number). The equation is thus, x2 = 4*6y = 24y


What is maximum or minimum of a parabola depending on whether the parabola opens up or down?

Vertex


How does the value of a variable affect the direction the parabola opens?

If the value of the variable is negative then the parabola opens downwards and when the value of variable is positive the parabola opens upward.


How does finding the vertex of a parabola help you when graphing a quadratic equation?

Finding the vertex of the parabola is important because it tells you where the bottom (or the top, for a parabola that 'opens' downward), and thus where you can begin graphing.


What way does the parabola open if a is greater than 0?

If a is greater than zero then the parabola opens upward.


What is y equals x2 plus 2x plus 1 on a graph?

Interpreting that function as y=x2+2x+1, the graph of this function would be a parabola that opens upward. It would be equivalent to y=(x+1)2. Its vertex would be at (-1,0) and this vertex would be the parabola's only zero.


What is the vertex form of a parabola that opens left?

It is (y - b)^2 = ax + c
