Problem 7Multiple Choice

By completing the square, write the given equation into the standard form, and then identify the vertex, focus, and directrix of the parabola. Also, graph the parabola in a rectangular coordinate system.
x² + 10x - 12y + 13 = 0

Standard form: (x -5)² = 12(y +1); Vertex: (5, -1); Focus: (5, 2); Directrix: y = -4

Graph of a parabola with vertex (5, -1), focus (5, 2), and directrix y=-4.

Standard form: (x +5)² = 12(y +1); Vertex: (-5, -1); Focus: (-5, 2); Directrix: y = -4

Graph of a parabola with vertex (-5, -1), focus (-5, 2), and directrix y=-4.

Standard form: (x -5)² = 12(y -1); Vertex: (5, 1); Focus: (5, 4); Directrix: y = -2

Graph of a parabola with vertex (5, 1), focus (5, 4), and directrix y=-2.
