Question 688050: How do I put the equation in standard form? The vertices and the center of the equation are also needed:
-16x^2-4y^2=48x-20y+57
I did try to solve it using completing the square but it didn't work out the correct way, because the numbers I came up with I was not able to factor them.

put the equation in standard form? The vertices and the center of the equation are also needed:
-16x^2-4y^2 = 48x-20y+57
----
Rearrange:
16x^2+48x + 4y^2 -20y + 57 = 0
-------
16(x^2+3x) + 4(y^2-5y) + 57 = 0
----
Complete the square:
16(x^2 + 3x + (3/2)^2) + 4(y^2 - 5y + (5/2)^2) = -57 + 16(3/2)^2 + 4(5/2)^2
------
16(x+(3/2))^2 + 4(y+(5/2))^2 = -57 + 36 + 25
----
16(x+(3/2))^2/(56/16) + 4(y+(5/2)^2/(56/4) = 4
-----
(x+(3/2))^2/(1/4) + (y+(5/2))^2/1 = 1
-----
Center at (-3/2 , -5/2)
Vertices at (-3/2, (-5/2)-1) and (-3/2, (-5/2)+1)
