1. = .
This equation is equivalent to
= , or
= .
It is the equation of a parabola opened downward and symmetric about the vertical axis x = 0.
Its vertex is V = (0, 4). y-intercept is y = 4. x-intercepts are x = -4 and x = 4.
2. = .
This equation is equivalent to
= .
Complete the squares in x and y separately. You will get an equivalent equation
= , or
= , or
