Step-by-step explanation:
I just did a quiz with this exact question
Check the picture below, so the parabola looks more or less like that.
now, the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, so that puts it where you see it in the picture, and the horizontal parabola is opening to the left-hand-side, meaning that the distance "P" is negative.

Answer:
y=-2x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
y+4=-2(x-1)
y+4=-2x+2
y=-2x+2-4
y=-2x-2
Answer is (D). -6-7x. Or to play with it a lil bit -7x-6. The numbers and coefficients and signs are all correct doesn’t matter how you form them unless “they” disagree with it
