<h3>Answer:</h3>

Equation of the ellipse = 3x² + 5y² = 32

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

<h2>Given:</h2>

  • The centre of the ellipse is at the origin and the X axis is the major axis

  • It passes through the points (-3, 1) and (2, -2)

<h2>To Find:</h2>

  • The equation of the ellipse

<h2>Solution:</h2>

The equation of an ellipse is given by,

\sf \dfrac{x^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{y^2}{b^2} =1

Given that the ellipse passes through the point (-3, 1)

Hence,

\sf \dfrac{(-3)^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{1^2}{b^2} =1

Cross multiplying we get,

  • 9b² + a² = 1 ²× a²b²
  • a²b² = 9b² + a²

Multiply by 4 on both sides,

  • 4a²b² = 36b² + 4a²------(1)

Also by given the ellipse passes through the point (2, -2)

Substituting this,

\sf \dfrac{2^2}{a^2} +\dfrac{(-2)^2}{b^2} =1

Cross multiply,

  • 4b² + 4a² = 1 × a²b²
  • a²b² = 4b² + 4a²-------(2)

Subtracting equations 2 and 1,

  • 3a²b² = 32b²
  • 3a² = 32
  • a² = 32/3----(3)

Substituting in 2,

  • 32/3 × b² = 4b² + 4 × 32/3
  • 32/3 b² = 4b² + 128/3
  • 32/3 b² = (12b² + 128)/3
  • 32b² = 12b² + 128
  • 20b² = 128
  • b² = 128/20 = 32/5

Substituting the values in the equation for ellipse,

\sf \dfrac{x^2}{32/3} +\dfrac{y^2}{32/5} =1

\sf \dfrac{3x^2}{32} +\dfrac{5y^2}{32} =1

Multiplying whole equation by 32 we get,

3x² + 5y² = 32

<h3>Hence equation of the ellipse is 3x² + 5y² = 32</h3>

Which equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6)? y = –y equals negative startfraction one-third endfr
egoroff_w [7]

The equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6) \rm y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+5.

<h3>What is the slope of the equation?</h3>

For all lines in slope y-intercept form, it would be very simple to just find the answer by finding yourself the slope and y-intercept of the line in question.

The slope of the line is;

\rm m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m =\dfrac{7-6}{-6-(-3)}\\\\m = \dfrac{1}{-3}

The equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6) is;

\rm y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+b\\\\6=\dfrac{-1}{3}(-3)+b\\\\6=1+b\\\\b = 6-1\\\\b=5

The required line of the equation is;

\rm  y =mx+c\\\\y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+5

Hence, the equation represents the line that passes through (–6, 7) and (–3, 6) \rm y=\dfrac{-1}{3}x+5.
