Problem 6
Choose from the following list the word that best completes each statement. Words may be used more than once or not at all. \(\begin{array}{ll}{\text { center }} & {\text { horizontal }} \\ {\text { circle }} & {\text { parabola }} \\ {\text { conic sections }} & {\text { radii }}\end{array} \quad \begin{array}{l}{\text { vertex }} \\ {\text { vertical }} \\ {\text { radii }}\end{array}\) A radius is the distance from a point on a circle to the ______
Problem 15
Graph each hyperbola. Label all vertices and sketch all asymptotes. $$ 25 x^{2}-16 y^{2}=400 $$
Problem 35
How can you tell from the equation of an ellipse whether its graph is horizontal or vertical?
Problem 36
Can an ellipse ever be the graph of a function? Why or why not?
Problem 38
Solve. $$\log _{x} 81=4$$
Problem 42
Solve. $$x^{2}+4 x=60$$
Problem 43
Classify each of the following as the equation of either a circle, an ellipse, a parabola, or a hyperbola. $$ 16 x^{2}+5 y^{2}-12 x^{2}+8 y^{2}-3 x+4 y=568 $$
Problem 44
As the foci get closer to the center of an ellipse, what shape does the graph begin to resemble? Explain why this happens.
Problem 45
Is it possible for a hyperbola to represent the graph of a function? Why or why not?
Problem 48
Factor completely. $$ 9 x^{2} y^{2}-30 x y+25 $$
