Respuesta :

Answer: [tex](x+3)^2=-4(y-3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure, it is downward parabola of the form [tex]x^2=-4ay[/tex]

The parabola has its vertex at [tex](-3,3)[/tex]

Distance between parabola vertex and its directrix is 1 unit.

So, the value of a is 1

Hence, the equation of parabola is  [tex](x+3)^2=-4(y-3)[/tex]
