The vertex of this parabola is at -2 -3 When the y-value is -2 the x-value is -5 What is the coefficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation?
The vertex of this parabola is at -2 -3 When the y-value is -2 the x-value is -5. The coefficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation is -3.

In which direction will this parabola open y-8(x plus 5)2 plus 2?
The given equation of the parabola is in the vertex form (y - 8 = a(x + 5)^2 + 2). Here, (a) is the coefficient of the squared term. Since the coefficient of ((x + 5)^2) is positive (as it's implied to be 1), the parabola opens upwards. Therefore, the parabola opens in the direction of positive y-values.
The vertex of this parabola is at (2, -4) When the y-value is -3, the x-value is -3 What is the coefficient of the squared term in the parabola's equation?
-5
