Step-by-step explanation:
Perhaps you want a graph of ...
x^2/49 +(y +1)^2/4 = 1
This is an ellipse centered at (x, y) = (0, -1) with a major axis in the x-direction of 14, and a minor axis in the y-direction of 4.
You are right. 5 is correct.
For both of the contests, the variable is the number of competitors which we can set as x.
Consequently, the equation should be 5.50x+34.60=4.25x+64.60
5.50x=4.25x+30
1.25x=30
x=24
The fee of the contests is the same when there are 24 competitors
