Step 5.4.2.1.2

Multiply $30$ by $2$ .

$f (0) = - \sqrt{60} + 6$

Step 5.4.2.1.3

Rewrite $60$ as $2^{2} \cdot 15$ .

Step 5.4.2.1.3.1

Factor $4$ out of $60$ .

$f (0) = - \sqrt{4 (15)} + 6$

Step 5.4.2.1.3.2

Rewrite $4$ as $2^{2}$ .

$f (0) = - \sqrt{2^{2} \cdot 15} + 6$

Step 5.4.2.1.4

Pull terms out from under the radical.

$f (0) = - (2 \sqrt{15}) + 6$

Step 5.4.2.1.5

Multiply $2$ by $- 1$ .

$f (0) = - 2 \sqrt{15} + 6$

Step 5.4.2.2

The final answer is $- 2 \sqrt{15} + 6$ .

$y = - 2 \sqrt{15} + 6$

Step 5.4.3

Convert $- 2 \sqrt{15} + 6$ to decimal.

$= - 1.74596669$

Step 5.5

Graph the parabola using its properties and the selected points.

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ - 2 & 6 \\ - 1 & 11.48 \\ - 1 & 0.52 \\ 0 & 13.75 \\ 0 & - 1.75 \end{array}$

Step 6

Graph the parabola using its properties and the selected points.

Direction: Opens Right

Vertex: $(- 2, 6)$

Focus: $(\frac{11}{2}, 6)$

Axis of Symmetry: $y = 6$

Directrix: $x = - \frac{19}{2}$

$\begin{array}{c} x & y \\ - 2 & 6 \\ - 1 & 11.48 \\ - 1 & 0.52 \\ 0 & 13.75 \\ 0 & - 1.75 \end{array}$
