You asked:

Investigate the equation: \(y = 2 \cdot {x}^{2} - 6 x - 20\).

MathBot Answer:

The graph of the equation \(y = 2 \cdot {x}^{2} - 6 x - 20\) is a parabola.


The coordinates of its vertex are: \(\left(\frac{3}{2}, - \frac{49}{2}\right)\)

The coordinates of its focus are: \(\left(\frac{3}{2}, - \frac{195}{8}\right)\)

The directrix has equation: \(8 y + 197 = 0\).

The parabola has parameterization: \[\begin{aligned}x\left(\theta\right) &= \frac{3}{2} + \theta\\y\left(\theta\right) &= - \frac{49}{2} + 2 \theta^{2}\end{aligned}\]
