@ganeshie8 @jim_thompson5910 I NEED HELP I Have 2 More Problems To Answer PLEASE HELP
Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (0, 1) and a directrix of y = −1. Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus at (2, 4) and a directrix of y = 8.

OMG This Website Is A JOKE!
I'm here
Sorry, was busy irl
Thank God! Lol
One moment, I'm refreshing my memory *hasn't done this in a while* I'll be right with you
Ok
So, your focus is 1, where y=term a in the general form of a parabola: y^2=4ax or x^2=4ay
The Answer Should Be Something Like f(x)=x over x x^2 X Will Be Replace By Numbers Of
Course
There is an equation button just below the comment box. I want to be sure that I interpreted that result of yours properly, so would you mind typing it into that?
Like That
Why Wont It Let Me Insert
\[f(x)=x/(x(x^2))\]
Like that?
Its f(x)= (fraction) (x- or + 2)^2+6 or 8
From who or where did you get this equation(s)? What makes you think that this is the answer?
FLVS
Okay, so they'll want the answer in that format... The thing is, that doesn't resemble the equation that I believe it to be. And I don't know if I can cater my formula into that format, simply because the numbers don't look right. Would you like to try my method, or find someone from FLVS to do it in your method?
Try Yours
Alright then, I'll keep it as simple as possible. The vertex isn't given,but since there aren't any intercepts or such given, it's safe to assume that the vertex is the origin Because the focus is 1, and the directrix is -1, we know that p from x^2=4py is equal to 1|dw:1409282281102:dw|
The directrix is a line never touched by the line of the equation, so we know that the equation opens upwards|dw:1409282419144:dw|
