Our parabola open downward and therefore a is negative.

Explanation:
As value of a changes from positive to negative or from negative to positive, the direction of opening changes. For negative values of a we got negative parabolas that open downward. As the original formula y = x^2 we see that x^2 will always be positive because when you square a number it always gives positive value. Therefore the direction for which it will open, depends on value of a.

Answer:

The parabola is vertical (opens up or down).

Step-by-step explanation:

If the x is squared or if a is positive, the parabola opens up or to the right. If it is negative, it opens down or to the left. The vertex is at (h, k).

Anastaziya [24]
So a diver went 25.65 ft BELOW so it's negative.
then he went 16.5 ft further down, so that's negative also.
he then rose 12.45 ft, so that's positive.
so the expression is: -25.65+-16.5+12.45, the answer is 23.7
