The statement, "Knowing that a parabola opening to the right has a vertex at (-1,1) gives me enough information to determine its graph," does not make sense. This is because without any other points we have no way of determining how wide or how thin the parabola is, so therefore, we do not have enough information to fully determine its graph.
