Find the focus and directrix of the parabola y = {(x + 2)2 – 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

For focus-to-vertex distance "p", the equation of a parabola with vertex (h, k) can be written as ...

  y = 1/(4p)(x -h)^2 +k

Comparing this to your equation, we see that ...

  1/(4p) = 1

  h = -2

  k = -3

Solving for p, we find ...

  1/(4p) = 1

  1/4 = p . . . . . multiply by p

The parabola opens upward, so this means the focus is 1/4 unit above the vertex, and the directrix is 1/4 unit below the vertex.

if x decreases by 4 then y increases by 10

x=6 and x=3
