QuestionDetermine the general equation and complete solution for the ellipse: x24+(y+3)29=1\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{(y+3)^{2}}{9}=1.

Studdy Solution
The general equation of the ellipse is (x0)222+(y+3)232=1\frac{(x-0)^{2}}{2^{2}}+\frac{(y+3)^{2}}{3^{2}}=1 which simplifies to x24+(y+3)29=1\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{(y+3)^{2}}{9}=1.
The complete solution for the ellipse includes the center (h,k)=(0,3)(h,k)=(0,-3), the semi-major axis a=2a=2, and the semi-minor axis b=3b=3.
