Which of the following graphs accurately displays a parabola with its directrix and focus?




Answer:
Hey there!
The first graph is the correct answer. A point on the parabola is equally far from the focus as it is to the directrix.
Let me know if this helps :)
The graph that accurately displays a parabola with its directrix and focus is the first graph.
Suppose the considered function whose graph is to be made is f(x)
The values of 'x' (also called input variable, or independent variable) are usually plotted on horizontal axis, and the output values f(x) are plotted on the vertical axis.
They are together plotted on the point (x,y) = (x, f(x))
This is why we usually write the functions as: y = f(x)
A point shown in the graphs on the parabola is equally far from the focus as it is to the directrix.
Therefore, The first graph is the correct answer.
