Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly.

The general equation of a horizontal ellipse is

(x-h)2/a2 + (y-k)2/b2 = 1, at center (h,k) while a = semi-major axis, b = semi-minor axis. These are related through the distance of the focus from the center,c. a2 = b2 + c2.

If you draw the points on a coordinate plane, the center of the ellipse is at (0,0), so h and k equals 0. Then, the minor axis (2b) spans from 8 to -8 of the y-axis. This is equal to 16 units. Hence,

2b = 16
b = 8
b^2 = 64

The distance between the two foci is 2c. Thus,

2c = 12
c = 6
c^2 = 36

Then, a2 = 64 + 36 = 100. Substituting to the general equation:

x^2/100 + y^2/64 = 1

Without graphing, tell whether the line containing (4, 2) and (4, 9) is horizontal, vertical, or neither.
telo118 [61]

Answer:

Vertical.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is vertical because 4 + 4 (adding both X-axis, totalling 8) is smaller than 9 + 2 (adding both Y-axis, totalling 11), so the Y-axis, which is vertical, is bigger.

Find the values of x and y<br> X=<br> Y=
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

x = 7

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 12 = 3x - 5

5y - 4 = 3x - 5

So y + 12 = 5y - x

To solve the equation above, y =4

Sub y = 4,

x = 7
