Classify each conic section, write it's equation in standard form, and sketch its graph.
-9x^2+16y^2-18x-32y-137=0
rearrange terms:
16y^2-32y-9x^2-18x=137
complete the square:
16(y^2-2y+1)-9(x^2+2x+1)=137+16-9
16(y-1)^2-9(x+1)^2=144

This is an equation of a hyperbola with vertical transverse axis.
Its standard form:, (h,k)=(x,y) coordinates of center
see graph below:
y=�(9+(9/16)*(x+1)^2)^.5+1
