Solution

The correct option is A x28x+8y+24=0
x coordinates of the vertex and the focus both are same
axis of the required parabola will be x=4
If we shift the origin at (4,1), then the parabola will be the form of X2=4aY
and a=distance between focus and vertex=2
So required parabola will be
(x4)2=8(y+1)
x28x+8y+24=0
