Answer:

y =  \frac{3}{4} x \:  \: and \:  \: y =  -  \frac{3}{4} x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given hyperbola has equation:

\frac{ {x}^{2} }{16}  -   \frac{ {y}^{2} }{9}  = 1

The equations of asymptotes of the hyperbola.

\frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {a}^{2} }  -  \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ {b}^{2} }  = 1

is

y =  \pm \:  \frac{b}{a} x

Comparing the given equation to the standard equation of the hyperbola we have:

\frac{ {x}^{2} }{ {4}^{2} }  -  \frac{ {y}^{2} }{ {3}^{2} }  = 1

This implies that:

a=4 and b=3

The asymptote equations are:

y =  \pm \frac{3}{4}x

Or

y =  \frac{3}{4} x \:  \: and \:  \: y =  -  \frac{3}{4} x

Marian went shopping and bought clothes for $66.17 and books for $44.98. She then had a meal at the mall for $20.15. Which is th
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Either 130 or 131 would be acceptable.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we estimate, we do not use exact values.

66.17 is close to 66

44.98 is close to 45

20.15 is close to 20

           

Add the estimates together: 66+ 45+ 20 = 131

We could also estimate 66.17 to 65 which would give us an estimate of 130

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Required equation is: 25n = 875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number of minutes Jonathon read per day

Now

He read for 25 days and total 875 minutes

The equation will be:

25n = 875

We can solve this equation to find the number of minutes each day

Using Division property of Equality

\frac{25n}{25} = \frac{875}{25}\\n = 35

Hence,

Required equation is: 25n = 875
