The parabola defined by the equation below opens in which direction? x = 2.5(y - 6)2 + 4 A. Up B. Down C. Right D. Left

as the equation is in terms of y so it has to be left or right as the value of x increases rapidly when y increases but now as yhe coefficient of y is positive so it will be in direction of positive x axis so its direction is right
