    The answer is D. y = - 6.6 and y = 10.6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First of all, this is an ellipse with a vertical major axis so it would have to be y = #

    d=a2/c

    d is the distance between the center and the directrix.

    a = 8 b=3

    c2=a2-b2

    =64-9

    c2=55

    = about 7.4

    d=64/7.4

    =8.6

    y = 2+8.6

    y=10.6

    y=2-8.6

    y=-6.6
