directrix y=7x^2-3

directrix

y = 7 x^{2} - 3

y = - \frac{85}{28}

Solution steps

Rewrite

y = 7 x^{2} - 3

in the standard form:

4 \cdot \frac{1}{28} (y - (- 3)) = (x - 0)^{2}

(h, k) = (0, - 3), p = \frac{1}{28}

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, - 3)

y-coordinate

y = - 3 - p

y = - 3 - \frac{1}{28}

Refine

y = - \frac{85}{28}

- 0.0000005 x^{2} + 0.012 x + 19.21

4 y^{2} + x - 32 y + 68 = 0

y^{2} - 12 x = 0

3 - 2 x - x^{2}

x^{2} - 16
