(See attached diagram.) The positions of the vaulter's left and right hands are marked. The length of the entire pole is 15 feet. The segment below her left hand is twice as long as the segment above, so label those two parts with x and 2x. Those two segments add up to 15 feet:
The lower segment is 10 feet long. The vaulter's right hand is 1.5 feet above her left, so it is 10 + 1.5 = 11.5 from the bottom of the pole.
The lower segment is 10 feet long. The vaulter's right hand is 1.5 feet above her left, so it is 10 + 1.5 = 11.5 from the bottom of the pole.

Answer:
2. On a coordinate plane, a hyperbola is shown. One curve opens up and to the right in quadrants 1 and 4, and the other curve opens up and to the left in quadrants 2 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Technically, the curve is not a hyperbola. A hyperbola is of the form 1/x; this one is of the form 1/x².
The function can be simplified to ...
f(x) = 5/x² -5
which is a "hyperbola" with a vertical asymptote at x=0 and a vertical translation of -5 units to bring parts of it into the 3rd and 4th quadrants.
