Focus has coordinates (0, a)
a = -3
Thus, 4a = 4(-3) = -12
Because a is negative, we know it will be a concave down or concave left parabola. Hence, A and D can be eliminated. And we know it has to be B because the directrix is the horizontal line y = 3. Hence, the equation of the parabola becomes:

or
-⅔ (6x + 9) = 18
Apply distributive property. Multipy -⅔ to 6x and 9.
-4x - 6 = 18
Add 6 to both sides so -4x can be alone.
-4x - 6 + 6 = 18 + 6
-4x = 24
To get x alone, divide both sides by -4.
-4/-4x = 24/-4
x = -6
x = -6 is your answer. I hope this helps! Let me know if you need more help or if I got something wrong.
This is a rectangular prism. Its volume is V = (length)(width)(height).
Here, V = (10 cm)(3 cm)(2 cm) = 60 cm^3.
