Remark.
The easiest way to do this question is to graph it. Start with that.
The red line is y = (1/3)^x
The blue line is y = 5*(1/3)^x
Comment
The red line's y intercept is (0,1)
The blue line's y intercept is (0,5)
Why
If the x value is 0 then (1/3)^0 = 1
y = (1/3)^0 = 1 * 1 = 1 and for the blue graph
y = 5*(1/3)^0 = 5*1 = 5
In other words, in this set of equations, the 5 makes the y intercept 5 times larger than the 1 in front of y = (1/3)^x
If you have choices, could you please list them? I may be giving you the right answer but not in the form required.

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have the following equation of a parabola, given in the problem above:
x<span>=1/16y^2
2. Then, based on the graph attached, you have:
p=y^2/4x
p=8^2/(4)(4)
p=64/16
p=4
3. The directrix is:
directrix=h-p
directrix=0-4
directrix=-4
The answer is:-4</span>
