Answer:

y - k = (x + 2)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex equation of a vertical parabola is

y - k = a(x - h)^2, where (h, k) is the vertex.

We are given h = -2, k = 4, x = 0 and y = 8 and need to find the value of a.

8 - 4 = a(0 + 2)^2, or

4 = 4a, so a must be 1.

Then the desired equation is:

y - k = (x + 2)^2
