x=0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First, we identify that the vertices are vertical.
(an image below is attached if you want to see a visualization)
Therefore, the equation is such:

(h,k) is the center of the ellipse, which we could easily calculate by finding the midpoint between any pair of vertices.
This gets us (-2, 1)
Therefore, h = -2, k = 1
Now we want to find a,
we know the length of the major axis is 2a, and in this case, our length of the major axis is 26. So a = 13
Now we want to find b,
We know the length of the minor axis is 2b, and in this case, our length is 22, so b = 11
Now we will just plug in all the values and simplify to get our answer! B)
Any line can be expresses as:
y=mx+b where m=slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and b=y-intercept (value of y when x=0)
First find the slope:
m=(2-0)/(8-0)=2/8=1/4 so we have thus far:
y=0.25x+b, we solve for b using any point on the line, (8,2)
2=0.25(8)+b
2=2+b
0=b
So the line is:
y=.25x which they might also express as y=x/4
The answer is E. (1/4)x
