Define the type of conic section and write standard equation
16x^2-96x-9y^2=288
complete the square:
16(x^2-6+9)-9y^2=288+144
16(x-3)^2-9y^2=432
divide by 432

This is an equation of a hyperbola with horizontal transverse axis and center at (3,0)
Its standard form of equation: , (h,k)=coordinates of center
