Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

“the center of the ellipse is located below the given co-vertex”

Co-vertex and center are vertically aligned, so the ellipse is horizontal.

Equation for horizontal ellipse:

(x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b² = 1

with

a² ≥ b²

center (h,k)

vertices (h±a, k)

co-vertices (h, k±b)

foci (h±c,k), c² = a² -b²

One co-vertex is (-8,9), so h = -8.

One focus is (4,4), so k = 4.

Center (h,k) = (-8,4)

c = distance between center and focus = |-8 - 4| = 12

b = |9-k| = 5

a² = c² + b² = 169

(x+8)²/169 + (y-4)²/25 = 1
