Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{49}+\dfrac{y^2}{25}=1.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the ellipse is

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1.[/tex]

If the vertex of the ellipse is at point (-7,0), then a=7.

If the co-vertex of the elllipse is at point (0,-5), then b=5.

The equation of the ellipse is

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{7^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{5^2}=1,[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{49}+\dfrac{y^2}{25}=1.[/tex]
