A hyperbola is the locus of a point in a plane which moves in the plane in such a way that the ratio of its distance from a fixed point in the same plane to its distance from a fixed line is always constant, which is always greater than unity.

the fixed point is called the focus and the fixed line is directrix and the ratio is the eccentricity.

The general equation for the vertical hyperbola is

[ (y-k)^2 / a^2 ] – [ (x-h)^2 / b^2 ] = 1

The conjugate axis of the vertical hyperbola is y = k

Length of the conjugate axis = 2b

According to the question k = 2, h = -1, a = 4, b = 12

Length of the conjugate axis = 2b = 2 * 12 = 24

Find the Ratio of 250m to 1.5km

mestny [16]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 km= 1000m

1.5 km = 1 x 1000 + 500

1000 + 500

1500m

1500 m : 250 m

750 m : 125 m

150 m : 25 m

Use integration by parts to find the integrals in Exercise.<br> ∫(4x-12)e-8x dx.

stepladder [879]

Answer:

$e(2x^{2} -12x)-4x^{2}+C$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an indefinite integral as $\int \left(4x-12\right)e-8x\:dx$ . We are asked to find the given integral.

Let us solve our given problem.

$\int \left(4x-12\right)e\:dx-\int 8x\:dx$

Take out constant:

$e\int \left(4x-12\right)\:dx-8\int x\:dx$

$e(\int 4x\:dx -\int 12\right\:dx)-8\int x\:dx$

$e(\frac{4x^{1+1}}{2} -12x)-8*\frac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}+C$

$e(\frac{4x^{2}}{2} -12x)-8*\frac{x^{2}}{2}+C$

$e(2x^{2} -12x)-4x^{2}+C$

Therefore, our required integral would be $e(2x^{2} -12x)-4x^{2}+C$ .

Alika [10]

Answer:

The distance between them is 230.65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we use the Cosine formula

$a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bc\ cos\ A\\\\a^2 = 200^2 + 300^2 - 2\times 200\times 300cos50^{\circ}\\\\= 40,000 + 90,000 - 120,000cos50^{\circ}\\\\= 130,000 - 120,000 \times 0.64\\\\= 130,000 - 76,800\\\\a^2= 53,200\\\\a = \sqrt{53,200} \\\\= 230.65\ miles\ per\ hour$

Now the distance for one hour is

= 230.65 ÷ 1

= 230.65 miles
