axis ((x-1)/(25))^2+((y-3)/(16))^2=1

axis

semi - major axis a = 25, semi - minor axis b = 16

Solution steps

(\frac{x - 1}{25})^{2} + (\frac{y - 3}{16})^{2} = 1

Rewrite

(\frac{x - 1}{25})^{2} + (\frac{y - 3}{16})^{2} = 1

in the form of the standard ellipse equation

\frac{( x - 1 ) ^{2}}{2 5 ^{2}} + \frac{( y - 3 ) ^{2}}{1 6 ^{2}} = 1

Therefore ellipse properties are:

(h, k) = (1, 3), a = 25, b = 16

a > b

therefore

a

is semi-major axis and

b

is semi-minor axis

Ellipse with center (h, k) = (1, 3), a = 25, b = 16

What is the axis ((x-1)/(25))^2+((y-3)/(16))^2=1 ?
The axis ((x-1)/(25))^2+((y-3)/(16))^2=1 is semi-major axis a=25, semi-minor axis b=16
