find the b such that the vertex of parabola y² + 2y - bx -3 passes through (-6,3)
y^2+2y-bx-3 is passing (-6,3)
it will satisfy the equation of the parabola
(3)^2+2*3-b*-6-3=0
9+6+6b-3=0
6b=-12
b=-2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is NO equation of a parabola in this post.

There is NO equation at all in it.

There is NOTHING to discuss here . . .

---------------
What really IS in this post is one fatal mathematical error (the absence of the equation) and one grammar error saying 
"the vertex . . . passes through . . . the point".
