Question 248

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The ellipse x25+y216=1\frac { x ^ { 2 } } { 5 } + \frac { y ^ { 2 } } { 16 } = 1 is shifted down 3 units and right 8 units. Find an equation for the new ellipse and find the new center.


A) (x+3) 25+(y8) 211=1\frac { ( x + 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 5 } + \frac { ( y - 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 11 } = 1 ; center: (3,8) ( 3 , - 8 )
B) (x3) 25+(y+8) 211=1\frac { ( x - 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 5 } + \frac { ( y + 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 11 } = 1 ; center: (3,8) ( - 3,8 )
C) (x8) 25+(y+3) 216=1;\frac { ( x - 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 5 } + \frac { ( y + 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } = 1 ; center: (8,3) ( 8 , - 3 )
D) (x+8) 25+(y3) 211=1\frac { ( x + 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 5 } + \frac { ( y - 3 ) ^ { 2 } } { 11 } = 1 ; center: (8,3) ( 8 , - 3 )
