True/False

A logistics coordinator is mapping an elliptical delivery zone for a warehouse drone using the coordinate equation (x40)2144+(y60)2100=1\frac{(x-40)^2}{144} + \frac{(y-60)^2}{100} = 1. True or False: Based on the rules for graphing ellipses, the coordinator identifies that the major axis of this zone is horizontal because the larger denominator (144) is associated with the xx-variable.
