Ellipse graphic

[José Ricardo]

Homework Statement

Graph the ellipse 4x² + 2y² = 1

Homework Equations

4x² + 2y² = 1

The Attempt at a Solution

2x² + y²/2 = 1/2
I searched for exercises on Google, and i didn't find an equation like that. I watched videoleassons too but it didn't teach this type of equation.

It's hard to believe that you found nothing. All which is needed is in here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ellipse

I didn't even think on Wikipedia, thanks @fresh_42!

Try some values of x... what values for y work for your xs?
(You can try to solve for y as a function of x, then plug in choices of x.)
