To graph this equation, you need to solve it for y:
3y%5E2-x%5E2+=+25 Add x%5E2 to both sides.
3y%5E2+=+x%5E2%2B25 Divide both sides by 3.
y%5E2+=+%28x%5E2%2B25%29%2F3 Take the square root of both sides.
y+=+sqrt%28%28x%5E2%2B25%29%2F3%29 or y+=+-sqrt%28%28x%5E2%2B25%29%2F3%29
You will get two graphs:
