Question 100822: Find the center of an ellipse with the equation 7(x-2) raised to the 2 + 3(y-2) raised to the 2=21.
I have math notes, but I'm having a hard time understanding where the numbers come from. Thanks for your help! Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the center of an ellipse with the equation 7(x-2)^2 + 3(y-2)^2 = 21
-------------------
General Form:
(x-h)^2/a^2 + (y-k)^2/b^2 = 1
--------------------------------
Matching that with your problem you
see that h=2 and k=2.
So the center is at (2,2).
