MCQ
The equation $5 x^2+y^2+y=8$ represents
  • an ellipse
  • B
    a parabola
  • C
    a hyperbola
  • D
    a circle

Answer

Correct option: A.
an ellipse
(A)
$5 x^2+y^2+y=8$
$\Rightarrow 5 x^2+y^2+y+\frac{1}{4}=8+\frac{1}{4}$
$\Rightarrow 5 x^2+\left(y+\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=\frac{33}{4}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{\left(\frac{33}{20}\right)}+\frac{\left(y+\frac{1}{2}\right)^2}{\left(\frac{33}{4}\right)}=1$
The equation represent an ellipse.
