Question 336

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-The ellipse x216+y29=1\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) (x+8) 216+(y6) 29=1\frac { ( x + 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } + \frac { ( y - 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 9 } = 1 ; center: (8,6) ( - 8,6 )
B) (x+6) 27+(y8) 23=1;\frac { ( x + 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 7 } + \frac { ( y - 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 3 } = 1 ; center: (6,8) ( 6 , - 8 )
C) (x+8) 27+(y6) 23=1;\frac { ( x + 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 7 } + \frac { ( y - 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 3 } = 1 ; center: (8,6) ( 8,6 )
D) (x8) 216+(y+6) 29=1;\frac { ( x - 8 ) ^ { 2 } } { 16 } + \frac { ( y + 6 ) ^ { 2 } } { 9 } = 1 ; center: (8,6) ( - 8,6 )
