(-8,0),(8,0),(0,-5),(0,5)

Answer 1

i think squares should be there for the bottom numbers too ?

Answer 2

\[\large \dfrac{x^2}{8} + \dfrac{y^2}{5}=1\]

or

\[\large \dfrac{x^2}{8^2} + \dfrac{y^2}{5^2}=1\]

Answer 3

which one is correct ?

Answer 4

x^2/8 + y^2/5 = 1

Answer 5

then none of the given points satisfy the equation
plug them and see

Answer 6

x^2/8 + y^2/5 = 1
(-8,0)

plugin x = -8, y = 0

(-8)^2/8 + 0^2/5 = 1

8 = 1

Answer 7

you need to provide more details about the question

Answer 8

all it gives is the points

Answer 9

can u take a screenshot and attach if psble?
