The points which represents the vertices of the given equation are; (15, −2) and (−1, −2).

Which points among the answer choices represents the vertices of the ellipse whose equation is given?

The complete question gives the equation of the ellipse as; (x-7)²/64+(y+2)²/9=1.

Since, It follows from convention that general equation of ellipse with centre as (h, k) takes the form;

(x-h)²/a² +(y-k)²/b² = 1.

Consequently, it follows from observation that the value of a and b in the given equation in the task content is; √64 = 8 and √9 = 3 respectively.

Since, 8 > 3, The vertices of the ellipse are given by; (h±a, k).

The vertices in this scenario are therefore;

(7+8, -2) and (7-8, -2).

= (15, -2) and (-1, -2).
