Answer:
(1, 0)
Step-by-step explanation:
Please write this as y^2 = 4x; the " ^ " indicates exponentiation.
The appropriate equation for a horizontal parabola that opens to the right is
y^2 = 4px
Here, we are told that y^2 = 4x; this tells us that 4p = 4, and so p = 1.
Again, this parabola is a horizontal one and it opens to the right. p = 1 is the distance of the focus from the vertex, and in this case p = 1. Thus, the focus is at (1, 0) (situated on the x-axis).
