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

Simplify the expression 4(x − 5)(x2 + x + 2).
N76 [4]

Answer:

  4x^3 − 16x^2 − 12x − 40

Step-by-step explanation:

= 4(x)(x^2 +x +2) +4(-5)(x^2 +x +2) . . . use the distributive property

= 4x^3 +4x^2 +8x -20x^2 -20x -40 . . . . and again

= 4x^3 -16x^2 -12x -40
