Answer:
[tex]\Large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ y=\dfrac{1}{16}(a-3)^2-2 \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, please consider the following.
When the parabola equation is like
[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]
The vertex is the point (h,k) and the focus is the point (h, k+1/(4a))
As the vertex is (3,-2) we can say that h = 3 and k = -2.
We need to find a.
The focus is (3,2) so we can say.
[tex]2=-2+\dfrac{1}{4a}\\\\\text{*** We add 2. ***}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4a}=2+2=4\\\\\text{*** We multiply by 4a. ***}\\\\16a=1\\\\\text{*** We divide by 16. ***}\\\\a=\dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]
So an equation for the parabola is.
[tex]\large \boxed{\sf y=\dfrac{1}{16}(a-3)^2-2 }[/tex]
Hope this helps.
Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.
Thank you
