Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use point slope form

y - y1 = m(x-x1)

where m is the slope and ( x1,y1) is a point on the line

y-12 = 3(x-12)

If we want it in slope intercept form

Distribute

y-12 = 3x-36

Add 12 to each side

y-12+12 = 3x-36+12

y = 3x-24

ANSWER

This is an ellipse. The equation is:

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

EXPLANATION

We have to complete the square for each variable. To do so, we have to take the first two terms and compare them with the perfect binomial squared formula,

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

For x we have to take 16x² and -32x. Since the coefficient of x is not 1, first, we have to factor out the coefficient 16,

$16x^2-32x=16(x^2-2x)$

Now, the first term of the expanded binomial would be x and the second term -2x. Thus, the binomial is,

$(x-1)^2=x^2-2x+1$

To maintain the equation, we have to subtract 1,

$16(x^2-2x+1-1)=16((x-1)^2-1)=16(x-1)^2-16$

Now, we replace (16x² - 32x) from the given equation by this equivalent expression,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9y^2+72y+16=0$

The next step is to do the same for y. We have the terms 9y² + 72y. Again, since the coefficient of y² is not 1, we factor out the coefficient 9,

$9y^2+72y=9(y^2+8y)$

Following the same reasoning as before, we have that the perfect binomial squared is,

$(y+4)^2=y^2+8y+16$

Remember to subtract the independent term to maintain the equation,

$9(y^2+8y)=9(y^2+8y+16-16)=9((y+4)^2-16)=9(y+4)^2-144$

And now, as we did for x, replace the two terms (9y² + 72y) with this equivalent expression in the equation,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9(y+4)^2-144+16=0$

Add like terms,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2+(-16-144+16)=0 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144=0 \end{gathered}$

Add 144 to both sides,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144+144=0+144 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2=144 \end{gathered}$

As we can see, this is the equation of an ellipse. Its standard form is,

$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$

So the next step is to divide both sides by 144 and also write the coefficients as fractions in the denominator,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{16(x-1)^2}{144}+\frac{9(y+4)^2}{144}=\frac{144}{144} \\ \\ \frac{(x-1)^2}{\frac{144}{16}}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{\frac{144}{9}}=1 \end{gathered}$

Finally, we have to write the denominators as perfect squares, so we identify the values of a and b. 144 is 12², 16 is 4² and 9 is 3²,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{(\frac{12}{4})^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{(\frac{12}{3})^2}=1$

Note that we can simplify a and b,

$\frac{12}{4}=3\text{ and }\frac{12}{3}=4$

Hence, the equation of the ellipse is,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$
