What is the equation for the parabola with vertex (0, 0) and focus (5, 0)
**
Based on given information, this is a parabola with an equation of the standard form:
(y-k)^2=4p(x-h), with (h,k) being the (x,y) coordinates of the vertex.
For given problem:
vertex: (0,0) given
p=5 (based on given focus)
parabola opens rightwards
Equation:
(y-0)^2=4p(x-0)
y^2=20x
