Q. What is the center of the ellipse 10x2+3y2−30=0?Write your answer in simplified, rationalized form.(______,______)
Divide by 30: Now, divide the entire equation by 30 to get the standard form of the ellipse equation.(10x2)/30+(3y2)/30=30/30x2/3+y2/10=1
Standard form of ellipse: The standard form of an ellipse is (x−h)2/a2+(y−k)2/b2=1, where (h,k) is the center.Here, we have x2/3+y2/10=1, which can be written as (x−0)2/3+(y−0)2/10=1.So, the center of the ellipse is (0,0).
