The equation of the parabola in vertex form is:
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola.
From the information given, the vertex is (-4, -7), so we can substitute the values of h and k into the equation:
y = a(x - (-4))^2 + (-7)
Simplifying further, we get:
y = a(x + 4)^2 - 7
The correct equation in vertex form, based on the given information, is:
y = a(x + 4)^2 - 7
Since the equation does not specify the value of 'a' (the coefficient of the squared term), we cannot determine the specific equation without additional information.
