Question

The standard form for an ellipse whose major axis is parallel to the x axis is:\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} +\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1 Where a>bUse the image of the ellipse below to create the corresponding equation in standard form and then answer the following questions. If a value is a non-integer type your answer as a reduced fraction.ellipse centered at origin major axis along x-axis with vertex at (-9,0) and (9,0). Minor axis along y-axis, vertex at (0,3) and (0,-3)The center of the ellipse is the point (Answer, Answer)The value for a is: AnswerThe value for b is: Answer

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

The standart form

`((x-h)^2)/(a^2)+((y-k)^2)/(b^2)=1`

h and k represents the center of the ellipse, in this case.

The center of the ellipse is the point (0, 0)

a represents the distance between the center and the vertex, in this case

The value for a is: 9

b represents the distance between the center and the co-vertex, in this case

The value for b is: 3

Answer

The center of the ellipse is the point (0, 0)

The value for a is: 9

The value for b is: 3
