\n" ); document.write( "Using the vertex form of a parabola, \"y=a%28x-h%29%5E2+%2Bk\" where(h,k) is the vertex
\n" ); document.write( "y = -3x^2 -4
\n" ); document.write( " 1) parabola opens downward a = -3 < 0 Vertex Pt(0,-4) is a maximum pt
\n" ); document.write( " 2) Line of symetry is the y-axis
\n" ); document.write( " 3) relative to the the translation form the origin: down 4
