What is an orbit that is a parabola or a hyperbola?
Orbits are elliptical.
What are some examples of real life hyperbola?
The orbit of objects that approach the Sun, or Earth, from far away, above a certain critical speed.At a certain critical speed, the orbit will be a parabola. Above the critical speed, the orbit will be a hyperbola. (In both cases, the object will go away, never to come back.) Below the critical speed, the orbit is an elipse or a circle.The orbit of objects that approach the Sun, or Earth, from far away, above a certain critical speed.At a certain critical speed, the orbit will be a parabola.

Does a parabola always have 2 x intercepts?
No, if the vertex of the parabola is (0, 0) it will only have one x intercept. The parabola might have zero x intercepts as well. For example: Y= x^2 + 1 would never touch the x line.
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.
Is a parabola the same as a parabolic curve?
No. If you tilt a parabola, you will still have a parabolic curve but it will no longer be a parabola.
