Answer:
vertex = (5, - 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
The focus and directrix are equidistant from the vertex
Since the equation of directrix is y = - 3 then the parabola is vertical,
The distance between the focus and directrix is
| 1 - (- 3) | = | 4 | = 2
Thus the vertex is 2 units below the focus
vertex = (5, 1 - 2 ) = (5, - 1 )
