Which graph represents the equation y2 = –4x?

On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens to the left. It has a vertex at (0, 0), a focus at (negative 1, 0), and a directrix at x = 1.
On a coordinate plane, a parabola opens down. It has a vertex at (0, 0), a focus at (0, negative 1), and a directrix at y = 1.
