Note that the vertices, co-vertices, and foci are related by the equation
When we are given the coordinates of the foci and vertices of an ellipse, we can use this relationship to find the equation of the ellipse in standard form.
Given the vertices and foci of an ellipse centered at the origin, write its equation in standard form.
Determine whether the major axis lies on the
x - or
y -axis.
If the given coordinates of the vertices and foci have the form
and
respectively, then the major axis is the
x -axis. Use the standard form
If the given coordinates of the vertices and foci have the form
and
respectively, then the major axis is the
y -axis. Use the standard form
Use the equation
along with the given coordinates of the vertices and foci, to solve for
Substitute the values for
and
into the standard form of the equation determined in Step 1.
Writing the equation of an ellipse centered at the origin in standard form
What is the standard form equation of the ellipse that has vertices
and foci
The foci are on the
x -axis, so the major axis is the
x -axis. Thus, the equation will have the form
The vertices are
so
and
The foci are
so
and
We know that the vertices and foci are related by the equation
Solving for
we have:
Now we need only substitute
and
into the standard form of the equation. The equation of the ellipse is
Can we write the equation of an ellipse centered at the origin given coordinates of just one focus and vertex?
Yes. Ellipses are symmetrical, so the coordinates of the vertices of an ellipse centered around the origin will always have the form
or
Similarly, the coordinates of the foci will always have the form
or
Knowing this, we can use
and
from the given points, along with the equation
to find
Writing equations of ellipses not centered at the origin
Like the graphs of other equations, the graph of an
ellipse can be translated. If an ellipse is translated
units horizontally and
units vertically, the center of the ellipse will be
This
translation results in the standard form of the equation we saw previously, with
replaced by
and
y replaced by
is it possible to leave every good at the same level

I don't think so. because check it, if the demand for chicken increases, people will no longer consume fish like they used to causing a fall in the demand for fish

is not really possible to let the value of a goods to be same at the same time.....

Suppose the inflation rate is 6%, does it mean that all the goods you purchase will cost
6% more than previous year? Provide with reasoning.
Not necessarily. To measure the inflation rate economists normally use an averaged price index of a basket of certain goods. So if you purchase goods included in the basket, you will notice that you pay 6% more, otherwise not necessarily.
Good day
How do I calculate this question: C= 100+5yd G= 2000 T= 2000 I(planned)=200.
Suppose the actual output is 3000. What is the level of planned expenditures at this level of output?

money as unit of account means what?
Kalombe
A unit of account is something that can be used to value goods and services and make calculations

all of you please speak in English I can't understand you're language

I want to know how can we define macroeconomics in one line
Muhammad
it must be .9 or 0.9
no Mpc is greater than 1
Y=100+.9Y+50
Y-.9Y=150
0.1Y/0.1=150/0.1
Y=1500

hi can someone help me on this question
If a negative shocks shifts the IS curve to the left, what type of policy do you suggest so as to stabilize the level of output?
discuss your answer using appropriate graph.
