You can put this solution on YOUR website! graph the horizontal parabola and give domain and range: -1/2x=(y+3)^2
 **
 This is an equation of a parabola that opens leftwards.
 Its standard form: (y-k)^2=-4p(x-h), (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of the vertex
 For given problem:
 (y+3)^2=1/2x
 vertex: (0,-3)
 Domain: (-∞, 0]
 Range: (-∞,∞)
 x-intercept:
 set y=0
 3^2=x/2
 x=18
 axis of symmetry: y=-3
 I don't have the means to graph this parabola, but you should be able to do it with the information provided.
