Find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola with the following equation.

1 answer:

3 0

You are given the equation 36 = 9x² + 4y². You are asked to find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola. A hyperbola has the following general equation x²/a² + y²/b² = 1. the goal here is to find the slopes of the hyperbolic equation. So divide both sides by 36

36 = 9x² + 4y²
(1/36)[36 = 9x² + 4y²]
1 = x²/4 + y²/9
a² = 4
a = 2
and
b² = 9
b = 3

To find the slope, divide a/b and you will get 2/3.

a mailing tube in the shape of cylinder has a height of 24 inches and a radius of 3 inches. what is the volume, in cubic inches,

TiliK225 [7]

ANSWER

The volume of the mailing tube is 678.6 square inches to the nearest tenth.

EXPLANATION

The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula;

$V=\pi \: {r}^{2} h$

Since the mailing tube is in the form of a cylinder, we use this formula to find its volume.

We substitute h=24 and r=3 to obtain,

$V=\pi \times {3}^{2} \times 24$

$V=216\pi {in}^{2}$

$V=678.6{in}^{2}$

Simplify <br> 1+sinx/cosx+cosx/1+sinx

Dmitry [639]

$\frac{1 + sin(x)}{cos(x)} + \frac{cos(x)}{1 + sin(x)}$
$\frac{[1 + sin(x)][1 +sin(x)]}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]} + \frac{cos(x)[cos(x)]}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{1 + 2sin(x) + sin^{2}(x)}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]} + \frac{cos^{2}(x)}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{1 + 2sin(x) + sin^{2}(x) + cos^{2}(x)}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{1 + 2sin(x) + 1}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{1 + 1 + 2sin(x)}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{2 + 2sin(x)}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{2[1 + sin(x)]}{cos(x)[1 + sin(x)]}$
$\frac{2}{cos(x)}$
$2sec(x)$
