Determine the conic: 9x^2 + 2y^2 + 100y - 72x + 19 = 0, give its properties and sketch the graph.
***
9x^2- 72x + 2y^2 + 100y + 19 = 0
complete the square:
9(x^2-8x+16) + 2(y^2+50y+625) =-19+144+1350
9(x-4)^2+2(y+25)^2=1475
equation of given ellipse:
This is an equation of an ellipse with vertical major axis.
Ita standard form of equation: , a>b, (h,k)=coordinates of center.
For given ellipse:
center: (4, -25)
a^2=1475/2
a=√(1475/2)≈27.2 (distance from center to vertices)
b^2=1475/9
b=√(1479/9)≈12.8 (distance from center to co-vertices)
see graph below:
