Question

A.S.A.P PLEASE HELP

Answer 1

To solve this problem yu must apply the proccedure shown below:

 1. You have that the focus of the parabola is located at (0,–2) and the directrix is represented by y=2. Therefore, you have:

 √(x0-0)²+(y0-(-2))²=|y-2|

 2. By simplifying and clearing x², you obtain:

 (√x0²+(y0+2)²)²=(y0-2)²
 x0²+(y0+2)²=(y0-2)²

 { Note: x0²=x and y0=y)

 x²=-8y

 The answer is: x²=-8y
