Respuesta :

The equation of the parabola will be (x-6)² = -32 (y-4). It is a right downward parabola.

What is a parabola?

A parabola is a curve in such a way that its distance from the focus and the directrix are the same from every point on the curve.

Given that:-

Vertex is located at (4,6)

directrix at Y=8

The equation of the parabola is given as:-

( x - h )² =  -4a (y - k )

(x - 6 )² = -4 x 8 ( y - 4 )

( x - 6 )² = -32 ( y - 4 )

Hence the equation of the parabola will be (x-6)² = -32 (y-4). It is a right downward parabola.
