There are two parabolas that satisfy the given conditions -- one opening up and another opening to the right.
Assuming a parabola that opens up....
The vertex form of the equation of a parabola is
where the vertex is (h,k).
So the equation of this parabola is
Use the coordinates of the known point to find the coefficient a:
The equation in vertex form is
Converting to standard form....
A graph, showing the parabola passing through (0,0)....
