The directions say to Find is foci.
Today in class we learned that the foci meant the same term as focus.
I have been struggling with this problem. We are dealing with graphing and working with conic sections: ellipses and hyperbolas.
This what I have tried so far.

I tried dividing everything by one therefore I would get

a=9
b=1
c=
However it just isn't working out so I do not know if I have making a small mistake.
