Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given </em><em>points </em><em>(</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>)</em>

<em>First </em><em>calculating </em><em>slope </em><em>(</em><em>m) </em><em> </em>

<em>=</em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>y2</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1) </em><em>/</em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x2 </em><em>-</em><em>x1) </em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em>)</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>6</em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>3</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>2</em>

<em>Now</em>

<em>The </em><em>equation </em><em>in </em><em>point </em><em>slope </em><em>form</em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x1) </em>

<em>y </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>2</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>8</em>

<em>2x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>2x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>which </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>required </em><em>equation </em>

The foci and the directrices of the hyperbola are labeled. Which equation represents the hyperbola? (x-3)^2/16 - y^2/9= 1 x^2/16
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hyperbola are generally written as

(x-h)² / a² - (y-k)² / b² = 1

Where,

(h, k) is the center is

"a" is the semi-transverse axis

"b" is the semi-conjugate axis

The focus and the directives is generally describe as

The foci of the graph are

(h + a⋅e, k) and (h − a⋅e, k)

The directrices of the graph are

x = h + a / e and x = h − a / e

Comparing this to the equation given

1. (x-3)² / 4² - y² / 3² = 1

This is an hyperbole of centre (3,0)

And parallel to the x axis

2. x² / 4² - (y-3)² / 3² = 1

This is also an hyperbole of center (0,3) and parallel to the x axis

3. (y-3)² / 3² - x² / 4² = 1

This is an hyperbole parallel to the x axis

4. y² / 3² - (x-3)² / 1² = 1

This is an hyperbole parallel to the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

tens  ones. tenths hundredths thousandths

1        7       .   2          5                    3

We are rounding to the nearest tenth

We are rounding the 2 so we look at the 5.  If it is 5 or above we round up.

Since it is, we will round the 2 to a 3
