Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x - 6)= -2 + 5(2x + 1)

= 3x - 18 = -2 + 10x + 5

= -18 = -2 + 7x + 5

= -18 = 7x + 3

= -21 = 7x

= -3 = x

= x = -3

Which is the equation of an ellipse with directrices at y = ±2 and foci at (0, 1) and (0, −1)?
Alika [10]

The answer will be x squared over 4 plus y squared over 8 equals 1.

<h3> What is an ellipse?</h3>

An ellipse is an oval shape geometry having two focuses and the curve is equidistant from the focus.

The general equation of the ellipse is given as;

(x²/a²) + (y²/b²) = 1

The coordinates of a foci are: (±c, 0) where;

c² = b² - a²

However, we know that equation of directrix is; x = ±a/e

Now, Directrix is given ±4

Thus, a/e = 4

a = 4e

We also know that c = ae from ellipse foci coordinates.

Thus, ae = 2

since ae = 2, then (4e)e = 2

4e² = 2

e² = 2/4

e = 1/2

Thus;

a = 4 × 1/2

a = 2

Since c² = b² - a²;

2² = b² - 2²

4 = b² - 4

b² = 8

From (x²/a²) + (y²/b²) = 1, we can put our values to get;

x²/4 + y²/8 = 1

Hence the answer will be x squared over 4 plus y squared over 8 equals 1.
