Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) according to the definition of parabola d(focus)=f(directrix),

2) then

[tex]d(focus)=\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y+4)^2} \ and \ d(directrix)=|x-3|;[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y+4)^2} =|x-3|;[/tex]

3) after evoluation the equation:

(y+4)²=-4x+8 or (y+4)²= -4(x-2);

4) correct answer is D.
