Answer to Problem 5OE

x- intercept is 3 and y-intercept is 3 and foci lies on y-axis.

Explanation of Solution

Given information: Ellipse is 3x2+y2=9

Formula Used:

Standard form of the equation of ellipse with center (h,k) and major axis parallel to x-axis is:

  (xh)2a2+(yk)2b2=1

Where, a= x-intercept, b= y-intercept

When, a>b , foci lies on x-axis

When b>a , foci lies on y-axis

Calculation:

Equation of ellipse is given as follows:

  3x2+y2=9

Divide both sides of the equation by 9 :

  x23+y29=1x2(3)2+y2(3)2=1

Comparing the equation with standard form of the equation of ellipse (xh)2a2+(yk)2b2=1 :

  a=3b=3

Since b>a , thus foci lies on y-axis.

Conclusion:

Hence, x-intercept is 3 and y-intercept is 3 and foci lies on y-axis.
