To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1. You have that the ellipse given as a vertical major axis (a=13), therefore, taking the ellipse with its center at the origin, you have the following equation:
(y^2/a^2)+(x^2/b^2)=1
2. You have the distance from the center of the ellipse to the focus:
c=12, therefore, you can calculate the value of b, the minor radius:
c^2=a^2-b^2
b=√(13^3-12^2)
b=5
3. Therefore, the equation is:
a^2=169
b^2=25
(y^2/169)+(x^2/25)=1
The answer is: (y^2/169)+(x^2/25)=1
52 4/5 is the mixed number form and the exact form is 264/5
No you could have left it as the last but one line or write them separately as
11/18 + √85 / 18 , 11/18 - √85/18
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = (x - h)² + k (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex
Given y = x² + 7x - 5
To express in vertex form use the method of completing the square
add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term )²
y = x² + 2(
)x +
-
- 5
y = (x +
)² -
- 
y = (x +
)² - 
Hence
a =
and b = - 
You times it by one and then add the two zeros so your answer is 3,500
