directrix 3x^2-2

directrix

3 x^{2} - 2

y = - \frac{25}{12}

Solution steps

Rewrite

y = 3 x^{2} - 2

in the standard form:

4 \cdot \frac{1}{12} (y - (- 2)) = (x - 0)^{2}

(h, k) = (0, - 2), p = \frac{1}{12}

Parabola is symmetric around the y-axis and so the directrix is a line parallel to the x-axis, a distance

- p

from the center

(0, - 2)

y-coordinate

y = - 2 - p

y = - 2 - \frac{1}{12}

Refine

y = - \frac{25}{12}

x^{2} + 2 x - y = 3

(y + 3)^{2} = 4 (x - 3)

25 x^{2} - 70 x + 36

y = x^{2} - 5 x - 6

y^{2} + 8 y + 4 x + 20 = 0
