having trouble graphing the following parabola:
x = 2y^2
-----
Solve for "y":
y^2 = x/2
-----
y = +/-sqrt(x/2)
---
Plotting points:
Let x = 0, they y = 0
Let x = 8, then y = +2 and y = -2
Let x = 32, then y = +4 and y = -4
---
Plot the points: (0,0), (8,2), (8,-2), (32,4), (32,-4)
and draw a parabola that opens to the right.
