Question

Use a graphing device to graph the parabola.

$8y^2=x$

Short answer

The graph of parabola $8y^2=x$ is

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information.

The given equation of a parabola $8y^2=x$.

Step 2. Write the concept.

The given equation of a parabola $8y^2=x$

Putting the equation in standard form $y^2=\frac{1}{8}x$

$y=\mp \pm \sqrt{\frac{1}{8}x}$

Graphing both the equations$\begin{array}{l}x=\sqrt{\frac{1}{8}x}\\ x=-\sqrt{\frac{1}{8}x}\end{array}$ to obtain the graph of the parabola.
