(OP)
I am trying to sketch a parabolic line with an equation but cant seem to figure it out.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

(If you don't know about the feature I mentioned, search Parabola in Help and it will show you.)

Thanks guys

From this you can determine the focus and apex of the parabola. That should allow you to constrain a parabola according to the equation.

Anyway, a parabola is a parabola. Check it out in the sketch and you'll notice you can scale/stretch it to whatever you need. Pin down the focal point and the rest ought to be quite simple.
