\n" ); document.write( "Given vertices at (-5,0) and (5,0), the standard form of the equation is

\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2F5%5E2+-+y%5E2%2Fb%5E2+=+1\"

\n" ); document.write( "Plug in the coordinates of the other given point to determine b^2 to finish the problem.

\n" ); document.write( "\"6%5E2%2F5%5E2+-+11%5E2%2Fb%5E2+=+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"36%2F25+-+121%2Fb%5E2+=+1\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"121%2Fb%5E2+=+36%2F25-1+=+11%2F25\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b%5E2+=+275\"

\n" ); document.write( "The equation is

\n" ); document.write( "\"x%5E2%2F25+-+y%5E2%2F275+=+1\"
