Question

The eccentricity of the ellipse \(16x^2+7y^2=112\) is

• A. \(\frac{4}{3}\)
• B. \(\frac{7}{16}\)
• C. \(\frac{3}{\sqrt{7}}\)
• D. \(\frac{3}{4}\)

Hint:

For an ellipse, first convert the equation into standard form. The larger denominator is \(a^2\), and eccentricity is \(e=\sqrt{1-\frac{b^2}{a^2}}\).

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D
