question 336

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The ellipse $\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 16 } + \frac { y ^ { 2 } } { 9 } = 1$ is shifted up 6 units and left 8 units. Find an equation for the new ellipse and find the new center.

• A) \(\frac { ( x + 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } + \frac { ( y - 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 9 } = 1\); center: \(( - 8,6 )\)
• B) \(\frac { ( x + 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 7 } + \frac { ( y - 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 3 } = 1 ;\) center: \(( 6 , - 8 )\)
• C) \(\frac { ( x + 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 7 } + \frac { ( y - 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 3 } = 1 ;\) center: \(( 8,6 )\)
• D) \(\frac { ( x - 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } + \frac { ( y + 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 9 } = 1 ;\) center: \(( - 8,6 )\)
