Answer:

The answer to your question is letter A

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Vertex = (-5, -2)

Point = (-4, 2)

This is a vertical parabola the opens upwards.

The equation is

                             (x - h)² = 4p(y - k)

Substitution

                             (-4 + 5)² = 4p (2 + 2)

Simplification

                                      1² = 4p(4)

                                      1 = 16p

                                      p = 1/16

Equation of the parabola

                          (x + 5)² = 4/16(y + 2)

                          x² + 10x + 25 = 1/4y + 1/2

Conclusion

The coefficient of the squared expression is 1
