Answer:

Question one = 35a - 15

Question two = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property means to multiply all the numbers inside the parenthesis

by the outside number. 5 x 7a equals 35a and 5 x 3 = 15.

35 x 9 - 315 - 15 = 300

A = 9

Answer:

The answer to your question is:th first option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have and hyperbola with center (0, 1), and the hyperbola is horizontal because x² is positive.

Equation

y - k = ±\frac{b}{a} (x - h)

Process

Find a, b

                a² = 9    

               a = 3

                b² = 5

              b = √5

              h = 0    and k = 1

Substitution

              y - 1 = ±\frac{√5}{3} (x - 0)

Equation 1

            y = \frac{\sqrt{5} }{3} x + 1

Equation 2

           y = - \frac{\sqrt{5} }{3} x + 1
