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.

Find the equation of the line in standard form containing a point P(-3.3) and slope m= -4/3<br><br>​
bixtya [17]

Answer:

4x + 3y = -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

First substitute into the point-slope form:

y - y1 = m(x - x1):

y - 3 = (-4/3)(x - -3)

y - 3 = (-4/3)(x + 3)

y - 3 = -4/3 x - 4

y = -4/3 x - 4 + 3

y = -4/3x - 1   Multiply through be 3:

3y = -4x - 3

4x + 3y = -3  (answer).

A crew will arrive in one week and begin filming a city for a movie. The mayor is desperate to clean the city streets before fil
Reptile [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 week = 7 days of 24 hours each = 7×24 = 168 hours.

the first team can do 1/700 of the total work per hour.

the second team can do 1/600 if the total work per hour.

if they work together, then 1/700 + 1/600 of the total work can be done per hour.

to add these 2 fractions we need to bring them to the same denominator. and that would be 4200 (LCM of 700 and 600).

1/700 + 1/600 = 6/4200 + 7/4200 = 13/4200

so, together, they can do 13/4200 if the total job in 1 hour.

how many hours will they need together to finish the job ?

well, how often does 13 fit into 4200 (as 4200/4200 is the complete job) ?

4200 / 13 = 323.0769231... hours

so, it will still take a little bit over 323 hours to clean all the streets.

but there are only 168 hours until the film crew starts.

so, no, there is not enough time.
