What is the standard form for a parabola that passes through the points (2,3) and has a vertex of (0, -2)
**
Standard form of equation for a parabola: y=A(x-h)^2+k, with (h,k) being the (x,y) coordinates of the vertex.
For given parabola:
y=A(x-h)^+k
3=A(2-0)^2-2
3=4A-2
4A=5
A=5/4
Equation:
y=(5/4)x^2-2
