Multiple Choice

Find the vertex and focus of the parabola. $$y ^ { 2 } = \frac { 7 } { 9 } x$$

• A) vertex: \(( 0,0 )\) focus: \(\left( 0 , \frac { 7 } { 9 } \right)\)
• B) vertex: \(( 0,0 )\) focus: \(\left( \frac { 7 } { 9 } , 0 \right)\)
• C) vertex: \(( 0,0 )\) focus: \(\left( \frac { 7 } { 36 } , 0 \right)\)
• D) vertex: \(\left( 0 , - \frac { 5 } { 4 } \right)\) focus: \(\left( \frac { 7 } { 9 } , \frac { 7 } { 9 } \right)\)
• E) vertex: \(\left( 0 , - \frac { 5 } { 4 } \right)\) focus: \(\left( 0 , \frac { 7 } { 36 } \right)\)
