Question

Identify the graph of the given equation. x2 - y - 1 = 0

Expert Solution
Step 1

The given equation is x2-y-1=0.

To identify the graph of the given equation, write y as a function x that is shift the y-term in right side.

x2-1=y      Or y=x2-1  

 

 

Step 2

Since, the general form of the parabola is y=ax-h2+k.

Where h, k is the vertex of this parabola and a is a concavity constant.

If a>0, then parabola opens upwards and if a<0, then parabola opens downwards.
