positive.
I’m assuming you mean x = ay^2 the answer would be Right. Because it is positive. hope this helps! (:
right apex. hope that helps
If a is greater than zero then the parabola opens upward.
Assuming that a is the leading coefficient of the equation of the parabola, changing it from positive to negative will reflect the parabola along a horizontal line through its minimum - which will then become its maximum.

It is like the letter U.
positive.
When the coefficient of the y term ( a ) in the equation of a parabola is negative, the parabola opens downward. This means that its vertex is the highest point on the graph. Conversely, if ( a ) were positive, the parabola would open upward.
Upwards: it is cup shaped, not cap shaped.

If the value of ( a ) in the equation ( y = ax^2 ) is positive, the parabola opens upwards. This means that the vertex of the parabola is the lowest point, and as you move away from the vertex in either direction along the x-axis, the value of ( y ) increases. Conversely, if ( a ) were negative, the parabola would open downwards.
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.
A parabola opens downward when the coefficient of its ( x^2 ) term (denoted as ( a )) is negative. This means that the vertex of the parabola is the highest point on the graph. Conversely, if ( a ) is positive, the parabola opens upward.
If the coefficient ( a ) in the equation of a parabola (typically given in the form ( y = ax^2 + bx + c )) is positive, the parabola opens upwards. This means that the vertex of the parabola is the lowest point, and as you move away from the vertex in either direction along the x-axis, the y-values increase.
Open to the right. Like the sign for a subset, or a rounded version of the less than symbol, <.
