The standard form is (x - h)2<span> = 4p (y - k), where the focus is (h, k + p) and the directrix is y = k - p. If the </span>parabola<span> is rotated so that its vertex is (h,k) and its axis of symmetry is parallel to the x-axis, it has an </span>equation<span> of (y - k)</span>2<span> = 4p (x - h), where the focus is (h + p, k) and the directrix is x = h - p.</span>
Answer: D
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Vertex form is: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k where (h, k) is the vertex.
f(x) = (x - 3)² - 5
- the vertex is (3, 5).
- "a" is positive (+1), so it points upward.
The only graph that matches is the last one, <em>which I called graph D.</em>
