Axis of a parabola lies along $x$-axis. If its vertex and focus are at distances $2$ and $4$ respectively from the origin, on the positive $x$-axis then which of the following points does not lie on it ?
- $(4, -4)$
- $(5 , 2 \sqrt{6})$
- $(8, 6)$
- $ 6 , 4 \sqrt{2}$
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
$y^2 = 8 (x - 2)$
$(8, 6)$ does not lie on parabola.

Let \( A = \{-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3\} \). A relation \( R \) is defined such that \( xRy \) if \( y = \max(x, 1) \). The number of elements required to make it reflexive is \( l \), the number of elements required to make it symmetric is \( m \), and the number of elements in the relation \( R \) is \( n \). Then the value of \( l + m + n \) is equal to:
