Answer:

x = -2y^2

Explanation Part 1:

It's not vertical, and thus it's not a standard (y = ax^2 + b) parabola.

This must mean it's either x = 2y^2 or x = -2y^2

Explanation Part 2:

You can test values into either one to check if it works

Take (-2, 1) for example, doesn't have to be a precise coordinate pair:

First Equation

x = 2y^2

-2 = 2(1)^2

-2 = 2(1)

-2 = 2

DOESN'T WORK!

Second Equation

x = -2y^2

-2 = -2(-1)^2

-2 = -2(1)

-2 = -2

IT WORKS!
