Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Just plugging in the given x or y values, you can rule out both A and B, only C and D work out logically.

-17=-3(2-2)²-17

-17=0-17

-17=-17✓

2=3(x+17)1+2

2=0+2

2=2✓

With parabolas, if you're talking in terms of y=x², it will be vertical. If talking in terms of x=y², it will be horizontal. As we're looking for something horizontal (open to the left), we need a x=y² formula. Of C and D, only C is an x=y² formula, and thus the answer.
