Determine the conic: 9x^2 + 2y^2 + 100y - 72x + 19 = 0, give its properties and sketch the graph.
\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "9x^2- 72x + 2y^2 + 100y + 19 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "complete the square:
\n" ); document.write( "9(x^2-8x+16) + 2(y^2+50y+625) =-19+144+1350
\n" ); document.write( "9(x-4)^2+2(y+25)^2=1475
\n" ); document.write( "equation of given ellipse:\"%28x-4%29%5E2%2F%281475%2F9%29%2B%28y%2B25%29%5E2%2F%281475%2F2%29=1\"
\n" ); document.write( "This is an equation of an ellipse with vertical major axis.
\n" ); document.write( "Ita standard form of equation: \"%28x-h%29%5E2%2Fb%5E2%2B%28y-k%29%5E2%2Fa%5E2=1\", a>b, (h,k)=coordinates of center.
\n" ); document.write( "For given ellipse:
\n" ); document.write( "center: (4, -25)
\n" ); document.write( "a^2=1475/2
\n" ); document.write( "a=√(1475/2)≈27.2 (distance from center to vertices)
\n" ); document.write( "b^2=1475/9
\n" ); document.write( "b=√(1479/9)≈12.8 (distance from center to co-vertices)
\n" ); document.write( "see graph below:
