The true statement is that the points of intersection are of equal distance from the y-axis.
<h3>What is parabola?</h3>
A parabola is a U-shaped plane curve where any point is at an equal distance from a fixed point (known as the focus) and from a fixed straight line which is known as the directrix.
Given that the vertex of a parabola that opens downward is at (0, 4).
The vertex of a second parabola is at (0, -4).
Therefore, the points of intersection are the distance from the y-axis.
This is because the symmetry axis of both parabolas is x = 0, thus the intersection points must be at same distance from x- axis and y-axis.

The complete question is;
The vertex of a parabola that opens downward is at (0, 4). The vertex of a second parabola is at (0, –4). If the parabolas intersect at two points, which statement must be true?
The second parabola opens downward.
The second parabola opens upward.
The points of intersection are on the x-axis.
The points of intersection are of equal distance from the y-axis.
