directrix 3y^2-30y+77

directrix

x = \frac{23}{12}

Solution steps

Rewrite

x = 3 y^{2} - 30 y + 77

in the standard form

4 \cdot \frac{1}{12} (x - 2) = (y - 5)^{2}

(h, k) = (2, 5), p = \frac{1}{12}

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

- p

from the center

(2, 5)

x-coordinate

x = 2 - p

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

Refine

x = \frac{23}{12}
