Answer:
11 3/14
Step-by-step explanation:
The best answer would be C
X²/9 + y²/16 = 1
The general for mula of an ellipse is:
(x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b² = 1. Since h = k = 0, this ellipse
x²/9 + y²/16 = 1
passes by the center O. (Note that a = 3 and b = 4)
Moreover sin b>a so the majore axis is (on the y-axis) and a the minor axis (on the x-axis) [Its shape is as a vertical egg].
On a system of perpendicular axis that intercept in O., take on the x-axis 2 points A & B with respective coordinate A(3.0) and B(-3,0)
On the y-axis your report A'(0,+4) and B'(0,-4). So you have the vertex of the ellipse, then it's easy to draw it
We can simplify this equation and find the value of k.
k ÷ 2 + 1 - 1k = -2k
k ÷ 2 + 1 = -k
k + 1 = -2k
1 = -3k
k = -1/3
