Detailed Solution

Let Px1,y1 be any point on required locus. 

Given that the distance from x-axis is twice its distance from the y-axis

The distance from the point Px1,y1 to x- axis is y1 and the distance between from the point to y- axis is x1

Given that the distance from  p to x-axis is twice its distance from the y-axis

y1=2x1 squaring on both sides y21=4x21  locus of p(x1 ,y1) is y2=4x2
