<span>The parabola intercepts the x-axis happen when? Well, it's when "y" = 0. So you want to solve for x, 0 = 2x^2 + 2x -4</span>
Answer:
x-29/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Directrix is x =1, so it is horizontal parabola.Vertex is between the focus and directrix on equal distance 5-x=x-1, 2x=6,
x=3. y -coordinate of the vertex for this parabola equals y-coordinate of the focus.
Vertex (3,2).
Focus has x=5 >1, so it is directed to the right.
