Hey can you me posted picture of question

The summary of directions of the parabola is:

a) Squared term is x
Parabola either opens up or down.
Positive coefficient means upward opening and negative coefficient means downward opening

b) Squared term is y
Parabola either opens right or left
Positive coefficient means rightwards opening and negative coefficient means leftwards opening

Since the coefficient is positive with squared x term, the parabola opens upward.

So the answer to this question is option D
