graph parabola vertex: (0,0) point (-3,3) and written in quadratic equation form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since the vertex is \((0,0)\) you know it looks like \[y=ax^2\] the only thing you don't know immediately is \(a\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but since \((-3,3)\) is on the graph you know \[3=a(-3)^2=9a\] and so you can solve for \(a\) in one step
