I have worked out the answer to the question, I hope it helps you. Please do not forget to check if this answer if reliable, I am not always correct
There you go, the answer is circled. The rest is the work that goes to it.
The answer is to this question is 8,326
We have to find the parameter a so that (-1,2) is part of the function f(x) = ax²+4.
To check if a point is part of a function, we can replace the values of x and y = f(x) with the coordinates of the point and then, if the equation stays true, then the point is part of the function.
So for (x,y) = (-1,2) to be part of the function y = f(x), this equation has to stands true:

Then, the function would have to be f(x) = -2x² + 4.
We can check with a graph as:
Answer: a = -2
