\n" ); document.write( " y = (x+4)^2
\n" ); document.write( "I. A parabola opening Upward
\n" ); document.write( "II. V(-4,0)
\n" ); document.write( "III. Line of symmetry is x = -4
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "the vertex form of a Parabola opening up(a>0) or down(a<0), \"y=a%28x-h%29%5E2+%2Bk\"
\n" ); document.write( "where(h,k) is the vertex and x = h is the Line of Symmetry
