SOLUTION: 64x^2 + 25y^2 = 6400 The major axis has length? The minor axis has length? x^2/(100) + y^2/(49) = 1 Length of major axis? Length of minor axis? Thank you

Question 949353: 64x^2 + 25y^2 = 6400
The major axis has length?
The minor axis has length?

x^2/(100) + y^2/(49) = 1
Length of major axis?
Length of minor axis?
Thank you

Major axis: The longest diameter of an ellipse.
Minor axis: The shortest diameter of an ellipse.
recall:
....the horizontal major axis
....the vertical major axis

1.
...first write it in form

=>here we have the vertical major axis and the lies under and under
=>
=>
so,
the major axis has length: =>
the minor axis has length: =>

2.
=>here we have the horizontal major axis and the lies under and under
=>
=>
Length of major axis is:
Length of minor axis is:
