x = a(y-v)^2 + h

would be correct for Apex, trust me I chose a different answer and got it wrong. Good luck!

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


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 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.


What is the standard equation of a parabola that opens up or down and whose vertex is at the origin?

focus , directrix


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!].


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.


A parabola that opens upward?

Is a parabola whose directrix is below its vertex.


What is the standard equation for vertex at origin opens down 1 and 76 units between the vertex and focus?

Since the vertex is at the origin and the parabola opens downward, the equation of the parabola is x2 = 4py, where p < 0, and the axis of symmetry is the y-axis. So the focus is at y-axis at (0, p) and the directrix equation is y = -p. Now, what do you mean with 1 and 76 units? 1.76 units? If the distance of the vertex and the focus is 1.76 units, then p = -1.76, thus 4p = -7.04, then the equation of the parabola is x2 = -7.04y.


The parabola opens downward the vertex is called?

The maximum.


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

Vertex


When a parabola opens upward the y coordinate of the vertex is a what?

Opening up, the vertex is a minimum.


If the parabola opens downward the vertex is called the?

The maximum point.
