AI Generated Solution

To find the equation of the parabola with the given focus and directrix, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Focus and Directrix The focus of the parabola is given as \( F(2, -3) \) and the directrix is given as \( x + 4 = 0 \), which simplifies to \( x = -4 \). ### Step 2: Determine the Orientation of the Parabola Since the directrix is a vertical line (x = -4) and the focus is to the right of the directrix, the parabola opens to the right. ...
