HELP! I need someone to show me how to do these questions on Conics w/ Parabolas!! Please help a gal out!

As we saw in Quadratic Functions , a parabola is the graph of a quadratic function. As part of our study of conics, we'll give it a new definition. A parabola is the set of all points equidistant from a line and a fixed point not on the line. The line is called the directrix, and the point is called the focus. The point on the parabola halfway between the focus and the directrix is the vertex. The line containing the focus and the vertex is the axis. A parabola is symmetric with respect to its axis. Below is a drawing of a parabola.
