The focus is above the directrix, so the parabola opens upward—its vertical scale factor is positive (+1/12). The line of symmetry is x=-5, so the vertex form of the equation will have the factor (x -(-5))² = (x+5)². The choice that meets both these requirements is
D. f(x) = (1/12)(x + 5)² + 2
D. f(x) = (1/12)(x + 5)² + 2
