We want to see which is the conic equation that has 2 squares with the same sign and different leading coefficients.
We will see that it is the equation of the ellipse.
Now let's see why that is the correct answer.
The general conic equation is of the form:
Where A and B are the leading coefficients, (a, b) is the center of the figure, and R is the average radius of the figure.
For example, if A = B, this would be the equation of a circle, but we must have two different leading coefficients.
If we write:
A = 1/C
B = 1/K
(both are positive, because "it has two squares with the same signs").
Then we get the equation:
We get the equation we wanted.
The same sign in both square parts and different leading coefficients.
The above equation is the general equation of an ellipse.

Hello!
To solve this, first perform the opposite operation for the last operation (on the left side) on both sides. The last operation of the left side is squaring. Therefore, square root both sides.
Please note that you must include ±. This is because the square root of 64 can be either positive or negative, as a square of either a positive or negative number is positive.
Now, add 9 to both sides.
There are 2 solutions from here. One comes from adding 8, and the other subtracting 8. Therefore, the two solutions are:
y = 9 + 8 = 17
y = 9 - 8 = 1
Therefore, your two solutions are 17 and 1.
Hope this helps!
