Find the Standard Form of the Parabola
f(x)=5(x-5)2
Step 1
Write f(x)=5(x-5)2 as an equation.
y=5(x-5)2
Step 2
Since x is on the right side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left side of the equation.
5(x-5)2=y
Step 3
Divide each term in 5(x-5)2=y by 5 and simplify.

Step 3.2.1.1
Cancel the common factor.
5(x-5)25=y5
Step 3.2.1.2
Divide (x-5)2 by 1.
(x-5)2=y5
(x-5)2=y5
(x-5)2=y5
(x-5)2=y5
Step 4
Reorder terms.
(x-5)2=15y
