What are the equations in standard form of the equations #9x^2+16y^2=144# and #25x^2+9y^2-18y-216=0# ?
(In ellipses. I don't know how to convert from general form to standard form.)

1 Answer
Explanation:
Given:
To point an ellipse or hyperbola in standard form you must complete the square if needed, then divide by the constant on the right side:
Equation 1:
Reduce so there isn't a constant in the numerator:
It's horizontal because the largest denominator is on the
Equation 2:
Requires completing of the square. First group
Factor:
Complete the square on
Divide by the constant on the right side:
Reduce so there isn't a constant in the numerator:
It's vertical because the largest denominator is on the
