<u>Directrix:</u>

If the vertex of the parabola is at (0, 0) and the focus is (0, -4) <em>which is 4 units down</em><em> </em>then the directrix will be the line 4 units UP.

Answer: y = 4

<u>Equation of parabola:</u>

y = \frac{1}{4p}x^{2}  ; where p is the distance from the vertex to the focus.

As stated above, the focus is 4 units down, so p = -4

y = \frac{1}{4(-4)}x^{2}

y = \frac{1}{-16}x^{2}

Answer: y = -\frac{1}{16}x^{2}
