What else can I help you with?
What best describes a single fixed point that is the same distance from the parabola as the directrix is from the parabola?
Locus
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 the midpoint of the parabola between the focus and the directrix?
It is the apex of the parabola.
Does a parabola have to have an x-intercept?
No, a parabola does not have to have an x-intercept. ex. -2(x-2)^2 - 4 is a parabola that has no x-intercept.

Can you solve X2 plus Y equals 63?
No you can't. There is no unique solution for 'x' and 'y'. The equation describes a parabola, and every point on the parabola satisfies the equation.
Which equation describes a parabola that opens left or right and whose vertex is at the point (hv)?
The equation that describes a parabola opening left or right with its vertex at the point ((h, k)) is given by ((y - k)^2 = 4p(x - h)), where (p) determines the direction and width of the parabola. If (p > 0), the parabola opens to the right, while if (p < 0), it opens to the left. Here, ((h, k)) represents the vertex coordinates.
What is 2xsquared plus 10x plus 25?
2x2 + 10x + 25 is a quadratic expression. It describes a parabola.
The equation below describes a parabola. If a is positive which way does the parabola open y ax2?
right apex. hope that helps
Is y equal xsquare minus 4 a linear function?
No. That function describes a parabola who's vertex is at the point (0, -4).
What equation describes a parabola that opens up or down and whose vertex at the point (hv)?
This is called the 'standard form' for the equation of a parabola:y =a (x-h)2+vDepending on whether the constant a is positive or negative, the parabola will open up or down.
How do you find the endpoints of a parabola when you have the function of the line?
A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.A parabola has no endpoints: it extends to infinity.
What equation describes a parabola that opens left or right and whose vertex is at the point h v?
The equation of a parabola that opens left or right with its vertex at the point ((h, v)) is given by ((y - v)^2 = 4p(x - h)), where (p) is the distance from the vertex to the focus. If (p > 0), the parabola opens to the right, and if (p < 0), it opens to the left.
