Graphing a quadratic function in standard form

The video tutorial explains how to graph a quadratic equation in the form of y = ax^2, focusing on the equation y = -4x^2. It covers setting up the graph, choosing points, calculating Y coordinates, and graphing the parabola. Key features such as the vertex, axis of symmetry, and intercepts are discussed, emphasizing the symmetry of the graph.

Describe how the graph behaves as it approaches the vertex.
