The answer is for that problem is -3
Answer:
y = −one twelfth(x − 2)2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = −one twelfth(x − 2)2
9n = 3n-12
-3n= -3n
6n= -12
divide by 6 = -2 =n
to check.. 9 times -2 = -18 soo.. 3 times -2= -6-12= -18
so it is correct!!
hope it helps :)
Check the picture below. So the ellipse looks more or less like so.
since the major axis is over the x-axis, is a horizontal ellipse, notice the "a" component length and the value for "c".

36x^2-49
this closely matches the binomial formula of (a+b)*(a-b)=a^2-b^2
so we know:
a^2=36x^2
a=6x
b^2=49
b=7
so (a+b)*(a-b)=(6x+7)*(6x-7)=36x^2-49
