Question 176983: i have the equation of an ellipse: (x-16)<-squared over 49 [plus](y-19)<-squared over 36 equals 1......i need help getting this to the "y= form" (y equals form) i explained it as best as i could so if you could please get back to me as soon as possible...gracias Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (x-16)<-squared over 49 [plus](y-19)<-squared over 36 equals 1......i need help getting this to the "y= form" (y equals form)
----------------------------------------------------
(x-16)^2/49 + (y-19)^2/36 = 1
(x-16)^2 + (y-19)^2 = 49*36
(y-19)^2 = 49*36 - (x-16)^2
y-19 = sqrt[49*36 - (x-16)^2]
y = +/-sqrt[49*36 - (x-16)^2] + 19
