What is the equation of the directrix of the parabola given by the equation y2 = -24x?

The equation of the directrix of the parabola given is x = 6, Option D is the correct answer.
A parabola is a U shaped curve whose all point are at same distnace from a point called as focus and a line called as Directrix .
The equation of the parabola given is
y² = -24x
When the standard equation of parabola is
(y - k)² = 4p (x - h),
where the focus is (h + p, k) and the directrix is x = h - p.
here h = 0
p = -24/4 = -6
x = 0 - (-6)
x = 6
Therefore Option D is the correct answer.
