You asked:

Investigate the equation: \(y = {x}^{2} + 8 x + 16\).

MathBot Answer:

The graph of the equation \(y = {x}^{2} + 8 x + 16\) is a parabola.


The coordinates of its vertex are: \(\left(-4, 0\right)\)

The coordinates of its focus are: \(\left(-4, \frac{1}{4}\right)\)

The directrix has equation: \(4 y + 1 = 0\).

The parabola has parameterization: \[\begin{aligned}x\left(\theta\right) &= -4 + \theta\\y\left(\theta\right) &= \theta^{2}\end{aligned}\]
