y=x^2−x−4, graphing parabolas in standard form ?
-----
y-intercept = f(0) = -4 ; Plot (0,-4)
----
Vertex ?
x = -b/(2a) = 1/2
f(1/2) = (1/4)-(2/4)-(16/4) = -17/4
------
Plot (1/2, -4 1/4)
That is the lowest point of the graph.
----
Draw the parabola up from the vertex making
sure it passes thru (0,-4)
