Question

help .!!!!!! the equation 3x^2-6y^2=6 represents which conic section??

Answer 1

have you covered conics yet?

Answer 2

i have not im on a pretest :(

Answer 3

well.... do you know the equation of the conics?

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

im guessing its a ellipse

Answer 6

what makes you think is an ellipse anyway?

Answer 7

its a Guess

Answer 8

heheh

Answer 9

yeah so am i correct i have 50 questions left

Answer 10

well

the rule goes

if "x" and "y" are squared, and the same sign and the same coefficient, is an circle

if the coefficients differ, is an ellipse

if either one is missing, "x" or "y" squared, then is a parabola

if "x" and "y" are squared, are different signs, is a hyperbola

Answer 11

so therfore what is the answer.....

Answer 12

3x^2-6y^2=6 <--- look at your squared "x" and "y"

Answer 13

so its a hyberbola

Answer 14

yeap
