Answer 2

@SolomonZelman

Answer 3

sideways id assume

Answer 4

the most basic way is to develop a table of points ... when x=this, y=that ...

Answer 5

otherwise, the more educated would just make it into a quadratic

6y^2-x=2

6y^2 - 2 = x

Answer 6

when y=0, x=-2 ... when y=1, x=4 etc ...

Answer 7

just by looking at it would it be a line or a central conic?

Answer 8

i line has no powers greater than 1 ... conics have a degree of 2 ... cubics a degree of 3 etc

Answer 9

how would I set the equation so it looks like a certain formula.... for example it seems as though I could make the equation look like the formula for parabola.

Answer 10

add x to each side and subtract 2 from each side is what i would do

then we have a y^2 on one side and an x on the other ... which tells us this parabola is graphed on its side
