PLEASE ANSWER The distance from the vertex of the curve to the focus is equal to .

Here’s the options

the distance from the vertex to the directrix

the distance from the vertex to the y-axis

the distance from the vertex to the origin

a constant

The distance from the vertex to the directrix.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to this question, we are speaking about a parabola, which has the characteristic that the distance from the vertex to the focus is equal to the least distance from the vertex to the directrix.

Hence, the right answer is: The distance from the vertex to the directrix.

i would need to see the dot plot : )
