Answer:

  2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

For a conic equation of the form ...

   r = ed/(1+e·sin(θ))

the eccentricity is represented by e and the distance from the pole to the directrix is represented by d.

Your equation can be rewritten in this form as ...

  r = 3·(-2/3)/(1 +3·sin(θ))

This means the directrix is 2/3 units below the pole.
