Answer:
The slope is 9
The y intercept is (0,7)
Step-by-step explanation:
y=9x+7
The equation is written in slope intercept form
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
The slope is 9
The y intercept is (0,7)

In this problem, given the focus at (2,4) and directrix at y = 8. then it is implied that the parabola is facing downwards. The vertex hence is at the middle of the focus and the directrix, hence at (2, 6). The general formula of the parabola is y-k = -4a ( x-h)^2. Substituting, y -6 = -1/8 *(x-2)^2. Answer is A.
